PUBLIC OPINION
EDITOR EVENING NEWS;

EDITOR EVENING VIEWS:
I noted with surprise the COM
m~unieatfon of sc. w. Tyrrefl" In
your issue of September %, 1910. IL
my name did not SO often appear in
it I would treat it with the silent
contempt it deserves. But in justice
to them who have so consistently
been my friends, I deem it my duty
at this time to say a word to the pub
lie concerning this unseemly, unpro-
fessional and discourteous contro-
-versy, into which | have been drawn.
In the first place, / desire to state
that an appointment to the staff of
the City Hospital was not a matter
of my own seeking. 1t was suggest
ed by some of the members of the
Board of Governors. I esteemed it
a matter of honorable mention, and
consented to act, If appointed. The
/ attacks upon me, when my name vas
suggested as a likely appointee, / be-
lieve, have erystallized the friend
ship and determination of my active
friends and supporters, and have not
in any manne injured me tn the
eyes of others.
AS to the mote" of which &c. w.
TyrrelI" speaks. I have this to say.
When / came to this city / was some
years younger and had less expert
ence with, and more faith in, human
nature, than l have now. At that
time Drs. Tyrrell and Ramsay were
in q very bitter personal quarrel, and
neither could find words to fifty de-
scribe his contempt for the other. I
was intimately associated with DIR.
Tyrrell and took his side of the con-
troversy as he stated 1t. The words
used by me in hat note were simply
an echo of the sentiments of DR..
Tyrrell towards DR.. Ramsay at that
time. The contents of>the note and
the writing Of 1t, passed out of my
mind shortly after, as the quarrel
was not mine, and the note had been
written to a FRIEND" and in conf
| dence as such. Much to my surprise,
DR.. Tyrrell. later. when he thought
1t might do me harm, and in hope
that such action might benefit him,
| divuIged it's contents to DR.. Ramsay.
I s~traightway explained the cireum-
stances to DR.. Ramsay. who seemed
appeased by my explanation. Now
again my friend PUSHES in to con
front me with the same note, when
he thinks 1t will do me a Votal in
Jury.
Whether or not the Board of Gov
ernors, at the time of the appoint
ment of DR.. Tyrrell q member of the
staff-'did not ~(innocently) make
the mistake Of appointing some one
whose conduct was or had been un-
becoming that of a physician
quote his own words, and add-and
a gentleman, / leave it to you, Mr..
Editor, and a discriminating public
to decide.
Yours very respectfully,
c.. w. FITHIAN.
