It is a special privilege to have good and great forbears. Of my great-great uncle, John Beswick Perrin, delivered in an obituary, 1887, to the Royal College of Surgeons:
Dr. Curnow, who knew him well, writes to me that “he was in many ways an exceptional man.” His constant efforts were to do good, not claiming credit for himself or believing himself faultless; he laughed at those who warned him that he allowed others to pick his brains. “Knowledge,” he used to say, “should be as free as air, and no one should bottle it up.”
13 June 1887 Death, at Leigh, of Mr. John Beswick Perrin, M.R.C.S.
PERRIN, J. BESWICK, Demonstrator of Anatomy at King's
College, London; 68, Wimpole street.
