  invasion, 
  its 
  efflorescence, 
  its 
  developed 
  symptoms, 
  and 
  its 
  sequela?. 
  The 
  

  

  sequelse 
  had 
  been 
  previously 
  designated 
  as 
  belonging 
  to 
  the 
  tertiary 
  stage 
  of 
  

  

  the 
  disease. 
  In 
  all 
  these 
  stages 
  the 
  analogies 
  and 
  affinities 
  with 
  the 
  acute 
  

  

  specifics 
  were 
  pointed 
  out. 
  

  

  Hutchinson 
  made 
  valuable 
  clinical 
  and 
  pathological 
  studies 
  of 
  dental 
  

  

  defects 
  in 
  children 
  who 
  had 
  been 
  the 
  subjects 
  of 
  convulsions 
  in 
  infancy, 
  and 
  

  

  likewise 
  suffered 
  from 
  lamellar 
  cataract 
  of 
  the 
  lens. 
  

  

  He 
  drew 
  attention 
  to 
  several 
  manifestations 
  of 
  gouty 
  inheritance 
  hitherto 
  

  

  unnoticed, 
  especially 
  in 
  regard 
  to 
  heemorrhagic 
  troubles, 
  and 
  he 
  made 
  an 
  

  

  exhaustive 
  investigation 
  of 
  the 
  clinical 
  history 
  of 
  tobacco 
  amblyopia. 
  

  

  In 
  his 
  lectures 
  on 
  the 
  " 
  pedigree 
  of 
  disease," 
  he 
  collected 
  and 
  elucidated 
  

   many 
  varied 
  and 
  important 
  facts 
  bearing 
  on 
  idiosyncracies 
  (a) 
  in 
  disease, 
  

  

  (b) 
  in 
  the 
  reaction 
  in 
  different 
  individuals 
  to 
  various 
  foods, 
  (c) 
  in 
  the 
  reaction 
  

  

  in 
  different 
  individuals 
  to 
  certain 
  drugs. 
  

  

  For 
  many 
  years 
  Hutchinson 
  made 
  careful 
  study 
  of 
  the 
  natural 
  history 
  of 
  

   leprosy, 
  and, 
  in 
  the 
  course 
  of 
  his 
  enquiries 
  on 
  the 
  geographical 
  distribution 
  

   •of 
  this 
  malady, 
  he 
  visited 
  Norway, 
  South 
  Africa, 
  and 
  India. 
  Some 
  of 
  

   these 
  journeys 
  were 
  made 
  in 
  advanced 
  life. 
  He 
  maintained 
  that 
  leprosy 
  

   was 
  a 
  food 
  disease, 
  and 
  he 
  marshalled 
  a 
  large 
  body 
  of 
  arguments 
  in 
  

   support 
  of 
  his 
  contention 
  that 
  the 
  eating 
  of 
  decomposing 
  fish 
  was 
  the 
  

   essential 
  factor. 
  He 
  accepted 
  the 
  later 
  bacteriological 
  findings 
  of 
  Hansen, 
  

   but 
  claimed 
  that 
  they 
  could 
  be 
  grafted 
  on 
  .to 
  his 
  own 
  doctrine. 
  He 
  failed 
  to 
  

   secure 
  the 
  acceptance 
  of 
  his 
  contention, 
  and 
  this 
  is 
  probably 
  the 
  solitary 
  

   instance 
  of 
  his 
  failure. 
  

  

  Hutchinson 
  was 
  a 
  master 
  of 
  note 
  taking. 
  He 
  took 
  great 
  pains 
  in 
  recording 
  

   individual 
  cases, 
  laying 
  much 
  stress 
  on 
  the 
  distribution 
  of 
  the 
  lesions 
  as 
  to 
  

   their 
  symmetry 
  or 
  asymmetry, 
  and 
  he 
  introduced 
  a 
  simple 
  graphic 
  " 
  space 
  

   for 
  time 
  " 
  diagram, 
  in 
  which 
  he 
  allotted 
  an 
  equally 
  wide 
  column 
  for 
  any 
  

   given 
  number 
  of 
  months 
  or 
  years, 
  and 
  inserted 
  the 
  date 
  when 
  the 
  important 
  

   symptoms 
  appeared 
  during 
  the 
  evolution 
  of 
  the 
  disease. 
  Thus 
  his 
  life 
  

   histories 
  yielded 
  interesting 
  facts 
  and 
  generalisations 
  as 
  to 
  the 
  usual 
  period 
  

   of 
  onset 
  and 
  the 
  duration 
  of 
  given 
  symptoms, 
  and 
  the 
  frequency 
  with 
  which 
  

   .different 
  groups 
  of 
  symptoms 
  occurred. 
  

  

  He 
  was 
  a 
  great 
  collector 
  of 
  pathological 
  specimens 
  and 
  of 
  drawings 
  of 
  

   •noteworthy 
  skin 
  conditions, 
  etc., 
  and 
  he 
  was 
  an 
  enthusiastic 
  exponent 
  of 
  

   museums. 
  He 
  was 
  one 
  of 
  the 
  best 
  clinical 
  teachers 
  of 
  his 
  time. 
  He 
  threw 
  a 
  

   flood 
  of 
  light 
  on 
  the 
  commonest 
  diseases, 
  and 
  had 
  that 
  faculty 
  of 
  the 
  

   scientific 
  use 
  of 
  the 
  imagination 
  which 
  enabled 
  him 
  to 
  show 
  the 
  relationship 
  

   of 
  one 
  disease 
  with 
  another, 
  however 
  far 
  they 
  might 
  superficially 
  seem 
  to 
  be 
  

   apart. 
  

  

  Although 
  excellent 
  as 
  a 
  teacher 
  of 
  undergraduates, 
  it 
  is 
  in 
  connection 
  

   with 
  post-graduate 
  instruction 
  that 
  he 
  will 
  be 
  chiefly 
  remembered. 
  To 
  

   the 
  Polyclinic, 
  in 
  Chenies 
  Street, 
  he 
  devoted 
  much 
  time, 
  effort, 
  and 
  money. 
  

   He 
  gave 
  regular 
  demonstrations 
  to 
  medical 
  men 
  there. 
  With 
  this 
  institution 
  

   his 
  own 
  clinical 
  museum 
  was 
  ultimately 
  incorporated, 
  and 
  he 
  spared 
  no
