A small collection of English veterinary manuscripts including volume of notes on care of the horse, its anatomy, breeds, training, ailments and diseases, with a number of veterinary recipes. The notes, in a variety of hands, seem to be taken largely from lectures, some apparently given by one Mitchell Dean in April 1833. The volume includes a pen sketch illustrating diseases of the horse's legs. Notebook of veterinary and general household prescriptions and recipesentitled 'Genuine and warranted good prescriptions for horses by "Old Joe" G. Peacock and W. Dixon, vetenaires and co, 1852.' Pocket account book recording the purchase of drugs from Messrs Spencer Dakers and Co., of Low Friar Street, Newcastle, apparently by a veterinarian and notebook containing veterinary prescriptions and recipes, some for named individuals.

The bulk of the collection consists of correspondence: the Singers were clearly vigorous letter writers and both Charles and Dorothea had an enormous number of family, friends and acquaintances. Unfortunately many of their letters were hand written and very few carbon copies survive. Very occasionally an attempt at methodical selection and arrangement is evident: on the whole correspondence had been kept in alphabetical order, and this has been retained in the arrangement of the collection. Dorothea and Charles' correspondence was fairly mixed (reflecting their working life together) with the exception of two distinct groups: correspondence about Dorothea's research on alchemical manuscripts, and later correspondence about her hearing aids.

The main part of the collection centres on the correspondence; this has been grouped together in a self-evident sequence: writings and biographical personal papers follow. Certain of Dorothea's papers remained clearly distinct and these have been kept together. Section E contains a variety of material relating to Jewish refugees, which had been placed on one side by Dorothea after the war for permanent preservation. It has not been listed in detail but sorted into three broad categories. The last section, comprising additional correspondence of the Singers with Sir Zachary Cope, Sir Arthur Salusbury MacNalty and Dr F N L Poynter, is not strictly part of the collection, but these groups of correspondence were given to the Institute to be placed alongside the Singer papers.

Collection of prescription-books of an unidentified London [Islington?] Chemist. From an entry inside the fly-leaf of Vol. 10, it appears that these prescription-books were commenced in 1835. The name of the firm responsible for this collection has not been ascertained, and has not been found in any of the volumes, but from the names of physicians appended to many of the prescriptions it seems to have been in Islington or in that part of London, for a large proportion of these are associated with the Islington Dispensary. Among these are many entries for Henry Bateman, FRCS [1806-1880] who was surgeon and later consulting surgeon to that institution. [Cf. Obituary notice in the Lancet 1880, ii, p. 874.] Pasted inside the upper cover of Vol. 18 [1861-1863] is a cut-out signature of Florence Nightingale [1820-1910].

Manuscripts from the collection of the British Medical Association, formerly held in the BMA Library, Tavistock Square, London.
