The late Mr. Guthrie, F.R.S. - from a photograph by Mayall, 1856. Creator: Unknown

The late Mr. Guthrie, F.R.S. - from a photograph by Mayall, 1856....this distinguished surgeon expired suddenly of disease of the heart...he suffered much from a violent cough, and on Thursday morning...he ceased to exist...From 1802 to 1807 he served in North America...He was present at the battle of Talavera, at the retreat of the British army across the Tagus - a most disastrous affair for the wounded, who were collected alter several days marching at the Convent of Deleytosa, near Truxillo, which Mr. Guthrie called the slaughterhouse of the wounded of the British army, from the loss of life which took place through the want of previous care and defective surgical knowledge...[He wrote a paper] "On the facility of performing the operation of amputation of the shoulder-joint"...[and] showed the inutility of sending consumptive persons to hot climates when expectorating purulent matter'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856
