(Dr) Sylvanus James Magarey (21 October 1850 – 24 March 1901) was a surgeon and politician in the Colony of South Australia, described as "an exemplary citizen, social reformer and legislator".〔 〕 He was a foundation Councillor of the Women's Suffrage League. ==History== Magarey was born the second son of Thomas Magarey and Elizabeth Magarey. He was educated at Adelaide Educational Institution (schoolmate Charles Kingston was born just one day before him) and St. Peter's College. He worked for a few years in his father's milling business before studying medicine at the University of Melbourne (Dr. Benjamin Poulton was a fellow student), graduating Bachelor of Medicine in 1873. He qualified Bachelor of Surgery in 1887, and Doctor of Medicine in 1888. Magarey was an Honorary Physician at the ''Adelaide Homeopathic Dispensary'' in King William Street, that offered free service to the poor, along with (later fellow parliamentarian) Dr. Allan Campbell. Magarey was particularly interested in the health of children, and was for some years honorary medical officer to the Adelaide Children's Hospital. Magarey published two pamphlets: *''Our climate and infant mortality'' (1879) *''Most fatal diseases of infancy and childhood'' (1880) Magarey was briefly involved with medical training for Ellen Arnold, one of South Australia's first female missionaries.〔("Ellen Arnold" SA Memory (State Library of South Australia) accessed 3 October 2014 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sylvanus James Magarey」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
