1826 April 12
J.B. to Peel on Bodies for dissection

But of the insufficiency inadequacy of this resource I
am sorry to say I have but too clear a conviction.
A general truth truism is men are not fond by mans nature disposed of breed up
rivals men are not fond of giving encrease
to the number of their encreasing competitors: a particular truth
contained in it is – that medical men are not: this
, too plain surely to need particular proof, has however
of late received it. What I allude to is – the proceeding
at the meeting of which Mr Lawrence was Chairman
as reported in the Morning Chronicle of the March
last. Read that account, Sir, if you can find time, and
then answer to yourself whether a Medical man who a man who has medical
as such has patronage in his hands, cares any
more whether the men in whose skill in medicine
other men the people depend for life and health, from any thing means
aptitude in any shape
about their business, than a Minister who has law patronage
cares whether the men in whose skill in law have any
the people depend for life and property has had any have given them
any means of aptitude with which entitles intellectual and
active, with relation to
know by study or experience anything about law. Unless that report is an
inter , you may even see Sir, that to the men in question for the sake of
that patronage and the indirect and sinister profit derived
from it, it is has been the object of the most solicitous endeavour to
the men in question to maximize the extent of the inaptitude
opposite to appropriate aptitude ignorance
deficiencies deficiency in appropriate aptitude knowledge and skill on the
part of all who will not their purchase at their shops for the purchase
of
a certificate of it. The contagiousness
of the natural plague so called is still matter of dispute: but
here is an artificial plague, the existence and contagiousness
of which is placed some you would I think find beyond dispute.
