1938réf. 165001938. Jeffrey Mary Pauline. Dr. Ida: India The Life Story of Ida S. Scudder 1938. Signed biography of American physician and medical missionary Ida Sophia Scudder 1870-1960 who established hospitals and medical training programs for women in colonial India. Born in India to American missionary parents Scudder pursued medicine after witnessing the consequences of restrictions preventing Indian women from receiving treatment from male physicians. In 1899 she graduated from Cornell Medical College as a member of its first graduating class to include women returning to India in 1900 to establish a small clinic in Vellore. Within two years she had founded the Mary Taber Schell Memorial Hospital which developed into a major center for women's medical treatment and professional training. Her subsequent establishment of a nursing school in 1909 and the Union Mission Medical School for Women in 1918 expanded opportunities for Indian women to enter the medical profession. Jeffrey Mary Pauline. Dr. Ida: India The Life Story of Ida S. Scudder. New York: Fleming H. Revell Company 1938. Signed and inscribed by the author on the front endpaper. 212 pages with a frontispiece portrait and 18 additional illustrations throughout. Original blue cloth boards measuring 8 x 6 inches. Jeffrey recounts Scudder's upbringing in a missionary family her medical education in the United States and her return to India to establish healthcare facilities for women who faced religious and social restrictions on treatment by male physicians. The biography traces the expansion of her work from a small rural clinic into a hospital and medical training institution documenting her efforts to provide both medical care and professional education for Indian women. Published in 1938 while Scudder remained active in the administration of her medical institutions the biography records the development of women's medical education in British India before independence. Her work at Vellore addressed both the shortage of female physicians and the restrictions that prevented many Indian women from seeking treatment while establishing training opportunities for Indian women in nursing and medicine. The author's inscription distinguishes this copy and the illustrations provide additional contemporary documentation of Scudder's life and medical work. A few pages contain ink corrections or annotations. Very good condition. unknown

réf. 23810‘Trin. Coll. Sunday 12 o’clock’. 24 November 1839; Trinity College Cambridge. See Napier’s entry and that of his sister Maria’s husband John Gellibrand Hubbard 1805-1889 1st Baron Addington in the Oxford DNB. 3pp 4to.

Folded four times. Addressed with three postmarks on reverse of second leaf to ‘The Rt Honble The Lady Napier Kew Green’. Minuted by Lady Napier: 'Cambridge Novr. 1838’. 64 lines of neatly-written text. He greets his mother as ‘My dear Mamma’ and begins by expressing delight at the arrival of his sister Maria on the previous day ‘though it happened at rather an unfortunate time for my occupations. I am glad to see her looking so very well and wearing her curls but I miss you very much and I wish you had been able to come along with them.’ Despite the fact that ‘Cambridge is particularly wet & dirty’ Maria and ‘Hubbard’ Maria had married John Hubbard the future Lord Addington in 1837 breakfasted with him that morning. ‘Sedgwick and we sat talking till Church time when we got squeezed into St Mary’s and heard Melville preach much worse than usual.’ The letter proceeds with references to ‘Whewell’ Trinity Chapel ‘Thorp’ ‘the Philosophical society’ ‘Ld & Lady Fitzalan’ ‘Lucy’ Lady Kinlock. He reports that ‘Cambridge was very much shocked by the Duke of Wellington's reported stroke and delighted to hear it was only a cold.’ Turning to personal matters he writes: ‘Maria is very much cut up about her cook who after appearing to be a pattern of culinary morality for some months has turned out a peculating thief besides having had several children in the house which she clandestinely conveyed out of the way in the dirty clothes basket’. One of Sedgwick’s dog’s five puppies is mousing for him. ‘Maria says that Sir Alexander has at last gone north and high time it was for I see Mr Ewart has gone down to stand for the boroughs he has been petting so long through Patrick.’ He ends by mentioning ‘Sir Thomas misfortunes whiuch are so very hard upon his old age but Maria declares that he seems to bear it very cheerfully.’ He concludes: ‘I write this dull letter late at night dear Mother it is only to announce Maria’s happy arrival and I intend to despatch a longer one to 9. this week. Lady Fitz. is pale and plain & Maria cust her out.’ The letter is signed ‘Napier / Trin. Coll. Sunday 12 o’clock’. ‘Trin. Coll. Sunday 12 o’clock’.
