Mid-19th C. Courses in Chemistry & Materia Medica Oversized Business 
Card.

Lawrence Turnbull, chemist & physician, was born in Scotland in 1821 and 
emigrated to America at age 12. A graduate of the Philadelphia College 
of Pharmacy and Jefferson Medical College, he was a lecturer on 
Technical Chemistry at the Franklin Institute, served as resident 
physician at the Blockley Hospital in Philadelphia, worked at Western 
Clinical Infirmary and served during the Civil War in Emory Hospital and 
at Fortress Monroe; in 1878 he became a surgeon at Jefferson Hospital. 
Dr. Turnbull wrote and lectured extensively and, as we see here, also 
gave lessons, presumably early in his long career.
