Excerpt from Ambulance Sermons: Being a Series of Popular Essays Ambulance Classes, now so much in vogue, are an advance towards the diffusion of useful medical knowledge among the people - a worthy object, which until quite recently had been almost entirely ignored. In the winter of 1884-85, my colleague and partner, Dr Rice Oxley, of Streatham, organized an Ambulance Class in Norwood, which was numerously attended. An important feature of this class was, the prominence given to instruction in elementary anatomy and physiology, enabling the pupils to comprehend the principles on which medical treatment is based, and showing the undertaking to have been conceived in the spirit of a true practitioner, opposed to every semblance of quackery. Sir Andrew Clark, who addressed the pupils at the end of the course, complimented them highly on the way they had acquitted themselves at the competitive examination.
