Johnstone, Robert (1805-1847).
Robert Johnstone was born in Goshen, County Longford, Ireland, in January, 1805, and had the usual
elementary education available for
lads of his day and locality. At the
age of fourteen he was apprenticed
to Mr. Martin Foril, an apothecary
of Tuan, County Cialway, for the term
of three years, and in 1823 matriculated
in Trinity College, Dublin, where he
probably took his M. D. in 1827. His
diploma as a member of the Royal
College of Surgeons of London bears
date June 13, 1828, and is distinguished
by the autographs of Sir Astley Cooper,
John Abernethy and other celebrities.
After some hesitation in deciding upon
a place for permanent settlement. Dr.
Johnstone finally selected the United
States and came here with his wife in
1831, settUng first in Cleveland, Ohio,
then removing for a year to Millersburg,
Ohio, and then returning again to
Cleveland. Here he .soon built up a
good practice and was on the high
road to success when he was cut off
prematurely by an attack of typhus
fever contracted from a patient, which
terminated his life July 16, 1847.
Dr. Johnstone's taste was for surgery, rather than medicine, though he prac- tised both. On January 29, 1846, he successfully removed, for a medullary sarcoma, the left superior maxillary bone of a child aged four and one-half years, the son of Daniel Solloway of Cleveland.

Jones, Ichabod Gibson (1807-1857).
Ichabod Gibson Jones was born in Unity, Waldo County, Maine, in 1807 and died at his home in Colum- bus, Ohio, in 1857.
In 1831 he came from Maine to Worth- ington, Ohio, where he remained until 1834, when he removed to Columbus, in which city he lived until 1857.
His tastes inclined him to internal medicine and obstetrics, almost to the exclusion of surgery, which he studied only to attain proficiency in the more
