Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Australasian Medical Gazette, Vol. 19: The Journal of the Australasian Branches of the British Medical Association; From January to December, 1900 Rockhampton, and the following year Dr. Patrick Smith made a presentation of 100 volumes. Further donations were made by Dr. Ryan, of Gympie, Dr. Moore, of Melbourne, and Mr. Bruck, of Sydney. Since then it has steadily been added to by the purchase of the most recent books in all branches of medicine, while the two Australian medical journals, and the leading ones of the old country, lie on the table for perusal. The library, which now contains several hundred volumes, is, in addition to our bank balance, our only asset, but we are pleased to look on it as a valuable one. It is true that had no library existed we should now have a fair amount in the bank earning a small yearly interest, but like good financiers, we preferred to put our surplus into real property that returns us interest tenfold.
