Spec7al Dispatch to The Tr.0un

BALTIMORE, May 21.-William H.
Buckler, who served on the staff Of the

tee, SCI o ancient Graco- Roman med
lcal and surgical Instruments found two
years ago near kolophon, in Asia Minor
The collection was on exhibition in
London and was formerly in the pos
session Of the late Alfred O. Van Len
nep, Dutch vjce-consul in Smyrna, who
owned large estate near Kolophon
and was we'll acquainted with the exca-
vauons and discoveries in that vicinity
1he instruments, thirty-six in number,
are al o. bronze, with but one excep-

OF some Roman physician living in Asia
minor in the first or second century
A. d. and the fact that they were all
found II one place is doubtless ex-
ptained, IN the opinion of experts, by
the ancient custom of burying a per-
son,s worldly possessions with him.
Ihe set includes surgical knives and
elevators, forceps, tenacula (sharp
hooks). unique drill bow, for use in
injuries and diseases Of the skull,
