NOTE 



THE late Dr. Thomas Logan was born at Bargenoch, in 

 the parish of Coylton, Ayrshire, and received his primary 

 education there from the late Mr. John Smith, parochial 

 schoolmaster, who was also the teacher of that Scottish 

 genius the late George Douglas Brown, author of the 

 House with the Green Shutters. 



He then passed to Anderson's College, Glasgow, and 

 received his Clinical training at the Royal Infirmary. 

 He always retained a high appreciation for all his old 

 Professors, to whom he was indebted for so much. In 

 due time, after examination, he got his license to practise 

 from the Royal Faculty of Physicians and Surgeons of 

 that city. He then entered the University of Aberdeen, 

 and after several years of study he graduated M.D. there. 

 Afterwards he was appointed House-Surgeon to Paisley 

 Infirmary, and after spending a short time in that insti- 

 tution went to general practice in the south of Scotland, 

 and then to Yorkshire, where he spent the rest of his 

 life. All through his professional career he was busily 

 engaged as a general practitioner and public health officer. 



He had the true scientific spirit, and was a great 

 student till the end of his days, and was very well in- 

 formed in geology, astronomy, and general literature. 

 He was for many years a regular attender at all meetings 

 of the British Medical Association, the International 

 Congresses, and those of the British Association.
