The Postcard

 

A postcard published by E. T. W. Dennis. The road in the photograph is actually Charing Cross Road -- St. Martin's Lane is the smaller road on the right of the photograph.

 

The card was posted in London W. C. on Wednesday the 6th. September 1905 to:

 

Mr. Norris,

41 Norwood Grove,

West Derby Road,

Liverpool.

 

The pencilled message on the back of the card was as follows:

 

"We are here for 8 days,

and enjoying ourselves

splendidly.

We made up our minds

all at once to come here

for a holiday.

Kind regards from

J. Gillespie".

 

The Edith Cavell Memorial

 

The island in Charing Cross Road is where the Edith Cavell Memorial was built after the Great War. It was unveiled by Queen Alexandra on the 17th. March 1920. It is Grade I listed.

 

Edith Cavell was a British nurse from Norfolk. She was matron at Berkendael Medical Institute in Brussels when the Great War broke out. In addition to nursing soldiers from both sides without distinction, she assisted some 200 Allied soldiers escape from German-occupied Belgium.

 

Edith was arrested in August 1915, court-martialled, found guilty of treason, and shot by a German firing squad on the 12th. October 1915. Her story was used in British propaganda as an example of German barbarism and moral depravity.

 

Her remains were initially buried in Belgium, but returned to Great Britain after the war in May 1919 for a state funeral at Westminster Abbey, before she was finally buried at Norwich Cathedral.

 

Although Cavell's sister suggested no monuments should be erected, funds for a public memorial were raised by a committee chaired by Viscount Burnham, owner of The Daily Telegraph, together with the Lord Mayor of London, the Bishop of London, and the chairman of the London County Council.

 

Sculptor Sir George Frampton accepted the commission in 1915, but declined any fee.

 

Description of the Memorial

 

Frampton adopted a Modernist style for the memorial, which comprises a 10 feet (3.0 m) high statue of Cavell in her nurse's uniform sculpted from white Carrara marble, standing on a grey Cornish granite pedestal.

 

The statue stands in front of a larger grey granite pylon which stands 40 feet (12 m) high and weighs 175 tons. The top of the block is carved into a cross and statue of a mother and child. The whole memorial is elevated on three steps.

 

On the pedestal beneath the statue of Cavell is an inscription which reads:

 

"Edith Cavell

Brussels

Dawn

October 12th. 1915

Patriotism is not enough

I must have no hatred or

bitterness for anyone."

 

The last three lines of the inscription quote her comment to Reverend Stirling Gahan, an Anglican chaplain who was permitted to give her Holy Communion on the night before her execution. These words were initially left off, and added in 1924 at the request of the National Council of Women.

 

The University of Kansas School of Medicine

 

So what else happened on the day that the card was posted?

 

Well, on Wednesday the 6th. September 1905, the University of Kansas School of Medicine opened its doors for the first day of classes.

 

A whopping 125 physicians, working generally on a voluntary basis, were available to teach KU's enrolled medical students.

Maj. Chris Backus, a pilot-physician, checks a patient at the flight medicine clinic on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, March 9, 2016. Pilot-physicians are involved in the research, development, testing, and evaluation of new and current Air Force systems and missions. Because of unique medical and human factors qualifications, pilot-physicians are particularly well suited to help develop new aircraft, life support equipment, and avionics or software upgrades. This is accomplished to enable aircrews to better adapt to the change in mission requirements. Backus is currently assigned to the 673rd Medical Group. (U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt.
