Following the death of Dr Gibson, the following tribute appeared in the British Medical Journal on 23 July 1910.  It was kindly provided in October 2010 by Rolf Lunsmann from Sydney,  Australia.

(From our Special Correspondent)

 

Death of Dr John Gibson

Dr John Gibson who practised at Windsor, New South Wales for the past twenty two years died from chronic Bright's disease and uraemia off the coast of New Guinea during a cruise for the benefit of his health on 5th May. He was in his 54th year. He was born in the Orkney Islands on 17 November 1857. He entered the University of Edinburgh, where he studied for two years in the Faculty of Arts. He then proceeded to the study of medicine, and after a distinguished career graduated MB, CM in 1879.  He at once proceeded to Evie in the Orkney Islands where he engaged in private practice. He was there appointed medical officer to the parochial board of the parish of Rousay and Egilshay. After six and a-half years' residence there he resigned his position and returned to the University of Edinburgh where he entered on special studies in pathology and bacteriology. There Professor Greenfleld secured his assistance in carrying on some original researches on behalf of the Fishery Board of Scotland.  For two years he held the position of second assistant in the pathological department under Professor Greenfield, and during that time he prosecuted some researches on waxy and hyaline degeneration, and for his thesis on this subject he received a gold medal on graduating MD in 1887.  He came to Sydney in 1888, and was appointed acting house-surgeon at the Prince Alfred Hospital, Sydney. This position he resigned after three months to take up private practice at Windsor, where he resided for the rest of his life.  At Windsor he was appointed honorary medical officer to the Hawkesbury Benevolent Asylum and Hospital, and also Government medical officer for the Windsor district; both these appointments he held at the time of his death.  For some years after he went to Windsor he did a good deal of pathological work, especially microscopic examinations of specimens of cancer and tuberculosis in cattle for the New South Wales Government.  At the Intercolonial Medical Congress in Sydney in 1892 he read a paper on certain worm nests or worm knots occurring in the cellular tissue of the brisket of cattle. The worm nests contained parasitic worms and filaria ova; these filaria have subsequently been named Filaria Gibsoni.  In 1897 he was appointed medical officer to the Hawkesbury Agricultural College, a position which he held up to the time of his death.  He laboured hard on behalf of the Hawkesbury Benevolent Asylum and Hospital, but he did not live to see the completion of the new buildings, for the erection of which he helped very largely to secure the necessary funds. The committee and subscribers o! the Benevolent Asylum and Hospital, in recognition of his distinguished services, elected him President in 1909.

From a newspaper cutting -

The New Firemaster of Aberdeen. – Mr Wm. Inkster, who was yesterday appointed Firemaster of Aberdeen, is a native of Rousay, Orkney Islands, and is in his 36th year.  A ship carpenter to trade, he sailed in foreign-going vessels for eight years.  It was in April 1889, that he became a member of the Metropolitan Fire Brigade, and being located at the Whitechapel Station, he has had many opportunities of acquiring both a practical and theoretical knowledge of the most approved methods of dealing with conflagrations large and small.  In the construction and repair of fire appliances his five years’ experience in the workshops of the brigade at headquarters has been of much advantage to him.  He has also taken considerable interest in the internal construction of buildings, and in what he considers the best methods of providing for the security of the inmates.  On several occasions Mr Inkster has visited this city, and has a very good knowledge of the main thoroughfares and principal streets.  Capt. Simmonds, late chief officer of the London Fire Brigade, in a testimonial, says that Mr Inkster is a man of good abilities, and thoroughly understands the duties of a fireman.
