'Finally came the great day of my long-looked-for pilgrimage to Glasgow. In 1901 my appendix had to be removed, As soon as I entered the operating theatre where Macewen was about to start work, it seemed like a new world to me; and I have never forgotten the tall, handsome figure standing by the basin washing his hands with the most punctilious care. To me it seemed wonderful that in those days someone should come in and inoculate culture media from beneath the surgeon'sthe surgeon's nails. 'It was not that the work in Newcastle-upon-Tyne was of a poor standard, for I yield to no one in my esteem for Rutherford Morison. But our theatre was not a sacred place, withoutany of the ritual associated with a surgical operation as we know it to-day, or as Macewen knew it and practised it in those days.
