Excerpt from The Practitioner, Vol. 16: A Journal of Therapeutics and Public Health; January to June
It was in October 1853 that I became acquainted with Francis Edmund Anstie, who had then just entered the Medical Department of King"s College, in which I had been studying for two years - and my memory pictures him as a tall and very thin young man, with an earnest good-looking face, and a remarkable eagerness of manner when his attention was excited. As a student he was steady and diligent, without however displaying any extraordinary force of originality in the profession of his choice. Although he had no complaint to make of his health, his spare frame and somewhat hollow features seemed to imply a delicacy of constitution the influence of which appeared at that time, in some measure, perhaps, in his personal characteristics. He was inclined not exactly to lounge, for that would suggest idleness, an idea which could never in any part of his career be justly associated with him.
