Pair: Surgeon Major M. O’C. Drury, Royal Army Medical Corps, who had been mentioned in despatches for his service in Burma 1885-86, and was the Army Medical Officer in Charge of the Langman Hospital, Bloemfontein, South Africa during the Boer War. On his medical staff was one Dr Conan Doyle, who went on to mention him in his book Memories and Adventures Egypt and Sudan 1882-89, undated reverse, 1 clasp, Suakin 1885 (Surgn. M. O’C. Drury. Med: Staff.) cleaned; Khedive’s Star, dated 1884, unnamed as issued, generally very fine or better (2) £400-£500 --- Maurice O’Connor Drury joined the Army Medical Service as a surgeon in July 1880, and advanced to surgeon major in July 1892. He served in the Sudan Campaign of 1885 (Medal with clasp, and Khedive’s Star), and then with the Burmese Expedition 1885-86 (Mentioned in Despatches, Medal with clasp). He was appointed to the military command of the Langman Hospital in January 1900: ‘This hospital, which consists of one hundred beds, with marquees and thirty-five tents, has left in the Oriental for South Africa. The hospital, unlike other civil ones, is not a base-hospital, but is going to “the front,” where its services are greatly needed. The greatest thought and care have been bestowed on its equipment, and no expense spared to provide, not only the most complete outfit of surgical appliances, medicines, stretchers, etc, but also innumerable comforts and nourishments that will so much help to alleviate the sufferings and hasten the recovery of the sick and wounded. Mr Archie L. Langman (Lieutenant Middlesex Yeomanry), son of the donor, will accompany it as Treasurer.... Mr Robert O’Callaghan, F.R.CS., of Harley Street, Surgeon to the French Hospital in London, is Surgeon-in-Chief, and is a specialist of repute in abdominal surgery. As gunshot-wounds of the abdomen have been very frequent and serious during the present war, his services will be of special value to our soldiers at “the front.” Mr C. Gibbs, F.R.C.S., of Harley Street, Assistant Surgeon Charing Cross Hospital, is Surgeon.... Dr. Conan Doyle is Physician.... Major M. O’C. Drury, R.A.M.C., who has been appointed by the War Office as the Army Medical Officer in charge of the Langman Hospital.... The staff of this hospital was inspected by the Duke of Cambridge on Feb. 21 at the headquarters of the St. George’s Rifles, Davies Street, Portman Square. On the entry of the Duke of Cambridge, the staff was called to order, by Major O’C. Drury, R.A.M.C., the military officer in command. The Duke carefully inspected the men, and the medical officers were presented to him. The Duke then, in a short speech, congratulated the staff on having the opportunity of serving their Queen and Country in South Africa...’ (The Sketch, 7 March 1900) The same publication also followed the progress of the hospital in Bloemfontein, and published photographs of Drury showing Lord Roberts around the hospital, and Dr Conan Doyle attending to the sick. The latter recalled his time there, and Drury, thus: When we were complete we were quite a good little unit... We were compelled to have one military chief, as a bond with the War Office, and this proved to be one Major Drury, a most amusing Irishman who might have come right out of Lever. To leave service and to “marry a rich widow with a cough” was, he said, the height of his ambition. He was a very pleasant companion in civil life, but when it came to duties which needed tact and routine he was rather too Celtic in his methods, and this led to friction and occasional rows in which I had to sustain the point of Mr Langman. I have no doubt he thought me an insubordinate dog, and I thought him - well, he has passed away now, and I remember him best as a very amusing companion.’ (Memories and Adventures by Arthur Conan Doyle refers) Drury resided at Cynghordy Hall, Carmarthenshire, and was killed in a shooting accident there in December 1906. He was climbing over a fence, when he slipped and fell with his gun going off in the process. Drury also features as a character in Kieran McMullen’s Sherlock Holmes and the Mystery of the Boer War Waggon, a copy of which is included with the lot. Sold with copied research, including photographic images of recipient.

Ca. 1st Century AD. A silver flat-banded bracelet in penannular form, with one single terminal, the terminal in the form of a snake head associated with Asclepius, with chased details of markings of the eyes and mouth. Asclepius was the deity associated with healing, regeneration and protection. This bracelet was likely worn by a physician in the Roman military on conquest in Britain. In the Judaeo-Christian tradition snakes were untrustworthy creatures, the snake was seen as the devil, tempting Adam and Eve. However, in the Greek and Roman world were associated with healing, regeneration and protection. A few of these were Asclepius, who holds a staff entwined with a single snake and Mercury, whose staff, the caduceus, has an entwined snake, protector of travellers and merchants. It is believed that snake bracelets and rings were worn by physicians amongst other members of society; these bracelets associated with the healing and protection effigy of Asclepius, to help the sick and unwell. Asclepius was also the deity associated with medicine, so it is fitting that this bracelet was likely worn by a physician.

Harold I (1035-1040), Penny, Jewel Cross type [BMC i], Lincoln, Mathan Balluc, nadan ballvc o lin, Lincoln style bust, 1.16g/10h (Mossop –; BEH –; N 802; S 1163). Extremely fine; the moneyer’s name very unusual and very rare £2,400-£3,000 --- Provenance: Bt Sovereign Rarities 2017 Veronica Smart discusses this moneyer (Matathan Balluc) in her article ‘Osulf Thein and others: Double Moneyers’ names on the Late Anglo-Saxon Coinage’ in SiLASC, presenting two possible interpretations for this figure’s byname. One, rather amusing, possibility is that the epithet relates to the OE bealluc or ‘testicle’. Alternatively, the byname may derive from the Celtic balach or ‘boy’. Smart viewed the latter as the more likely, given the Irish origin of the moneyer’s initial name, although that is not to say that Matathan’s contemporaries would have recognised its cosmopolitan origin.
