M R. LENNOX BROWNE, who has stepped into the shoes of Sir Morell Mackenzie as an authority on diseases of the throat, was at the age of twenty five Sir Morell's chief clinical assistant. His artistic gifts, which are well known, and which, as may be judged from our first portrait, received an early training, have been of considerable use to him in his profession, as he executed the whole of the illustrations for Sir Morell Mackenzie's great work on "Growths of the Larynx," and also for his own celebrated book, "The Throat and its Diseases." He was mainly instrumental in founding the Central London Throat and Ear Hospital, of which he is the senior surgeon; he is consulting surgeon to several other hospitals. He enjoys an especially large practice among actors, singers, and clergymen, who are particularly liable to lose their voices in the exercise of their vocations.
