The larger, middle one (A) belonged to Reverend William Arthur Johnson, Osler's teacher and mentor at Trinity College School. The small microscope on the left (B) was the property of Dr. A. Holford Walker, who practiced in Dundas and was the Osler family physician. Osler assisted Dr. Walker with his practice in the summer of 1869. Finally, Osler used the microscope on the right [C] after graduation (from what school is unclear)..
