William Salmon
William Salmon (1644–1713) was English empiric doctor, advertising himself as "Professor of Physick", and a writer of medical texts.〔David M. Knight and Matthew Eddy, ''Science and Beliefs: From Natural Philosophy to Natural Science''2005:53, note.〕
==Life==
He was born 2 June 1644 (inscription under a portrait in ''Ars Anatomica''). Enemies asserted that his first education was from a charlatan with whom he travelled, and to whose stock-in-trade he succeeded. His travels extended to New England.
Salmon set up looking for patients near the Smithfield gate of St. Bartholomew's Hospital. He treated all diseases, sold special prescriptions of his own, as well as drugs in general, cast horoscopes, and professed alchemy. He moved to the Red Balls in Salisbury Court off Fleet Street. In 1684, after a short residence in George Yard, near Broken Wharf, Salmon moved to the Blue Balcony by the ditch side, near Holborn Bridge, where he continued to reside till after 1692. He used to attend the meetings of a new sect at Leathersellers' Hall.〔
Salmon accumulated a large library, had two microscopes, a set of Napier's bones, and other mathematical instruments, some arrows and curiosities which he brought from the West Indies, and Dutch paintings. He died in 1713. His portrait is prefixed to his edition of Diemerbroek, and to his 'Ars Anatomica,' which appeared posthumously in 1714. Several other engraved portraits are mentioned by Bromley, among them being one by Vandergucht.〔
