What is William Budd about?

Among the many so-called provincial cities of Great Britain, which can claim a distinguished place in the annals of medi cine, one of the foremost is Bristol which contained an excellent medical school and a widely known hospital, the Bristol Infirmary, from an early date, and has supplied many men of great eminence to the profession. One of the greatest, al though his name is but little known to the present generation, was William Budd, the son of Samuel Budd, a surgeon. That the Budd family had a strong bent for the medical profession is shown by the fact that no less than seven of Samuel Budd's children graduated as doctors of medicine, and though William Budd is the only one that may justly be said to have become famous, two obtained distinction enough in their profession to be included in the "Dictionary of National Biography.''
