THE GREAT MACE

”

Page 29 text:

“

Presentation of Great Mace g THE GREAT MACE PRESENTED TO THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF SURGEONS BY THE CONSULTING SURGEONS OF THE BRITISH ARMIES This Mace has been designed so as to tell in a symbolic way of the close union between British and American surgery, and of the ties which unite Great Britain to Canada and to the United States of America. It retains the traditional shape and proportions of the Civic Mace of the seventeenth century, and is of hand-wrought chiselled and repousse silver gilt. It was made by Omar Ramsden, who embodied in his design some suggestions of the donors. The Dedicatory Inscription engraved on the plate under the Crown sets forth that the Mace is a gift From the Consulting Surgeons of the British Armies to the American College of Surgeons, in memory of mutual work and good-fellowship in the Great War, 1914-1918. The Crown Shaped Finial is formed of six rich scroll but- tresses upholding the Sacred Flame of Science issuing from a mortar of antique pattern, the model of which was recently found on the field of battle near Salonika. These buttresses spring from a cresting composed of alternating Maple leaves and American Eagles interwined with the Serpents of Esculapius, while the position usually occupied by a band of jewels in a monarchical crown is filled with the words The American College of Surgeons. The Body or Head is divided into six panels by the Winged Caduceus, being an ornamental rendering of the badge of the United States Army Medical Corps. The panels set forth the following Achievements at Arms in delicate and finely detailed repousse work: 1. The full Blazon of the United States of America. 2. The Dominion of Canada. 3. The Royal College of Surgeons of England. 4. The Badge of the Royal Army Medical Corps. 5. The Shields of Arms of John Hunter and Lord Lister. 6. A Cartouche bearing the words Philip Syng Physick 1 768-1837, Father of American Surgery.
