236 SAMUEL EDWIN SOLLY. 



was modeled on a most comprehensive system, as only the 

 master hand of Solly could have formulated. 



Dr. Solly was a man of remarkable attainments a repre- 

 sentative of the highest type of the intellectual Englishman ; in 

 medicime, he was a scholar with an investigative turn of mind ; 

 an executive of remarkable ability ; a public-spirited citizen of 

 the highest grade; and a writer upon climatological subjects 

 whose fame and name are co-extensive with the realms of 

 modern medicine. His personality was the most delightful that 

 the writer of this article has ever known. He possessed a quiet 

 and dignified bearing, a modest temperament, a genial dispo- 

 sition, kindness of thought and action, a courtesy of manner 

 that never was at fault, a ready wit that never lent itself to 

 sarcasm, a perfect host, a most welcome guest, strong intel- 

 lectually, with high moral ideals, and the courage of his con- 

 victions such was the character of the lovable man of whom 

 we write and who won his way into the hearts of all who came 

 within his presence.
