The late Sir William Scovell Savory, Bart., M.D., 1895. Engraving from a photograph, of an '...eminent member of the medical profession,,,He went to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, and until his death remained connected with it, latterly as consulting surgeon. He became a member of the College of Surgeons in 1847, and won the medical scholarship of the London University in the following year, when he graduated M.B. In 1852 he gained the Fellowship of the College of Surgeons, and afterwards became a most popular lecturer. For this work he had the rare qualification of delightful elocution, which made his lectures doubly pleasant, while his ability in surgery won a sincere admiration from the students. He was for some years President of the College of Surgeons, surgeon to Christ's Hospital, consulting surgeon to the Great Northern Hospital and other institutions. The Royal Society made him a Fellow, and the Queen conferred a baronetcy on her Surgeon- Extraordinary in 1890. Sir William married the daughter of Mr. William Borradailo, and by her he had an only son, the Rev. Borradaile Savory, Rector of St. Bartholomew-the- Great, West Smithfield, who succeeds his father in the baronetcy'. From "Illustrated London News", 1895.
