The surgeons, not being incorporated till 1800, had no special meeting-place ; but the apothecaries had their Hall in Water Lane, Blackfriars, which had been built in 1670, and is thus described by Garth : — Nigh where Fleet Ditch descends in sable Streams, To wash his sooty Naiads in the Thames ; There stands a Structure on a Rising Hill, Where Tyros take their Freedom out to kill. — The Dispensary, Canto 3, ed. 1699. Professional etiquette was, as a rule, strictly adhered to, and these divisi...ons did not interfere with each other, although Brown ' intimates that it was done occasionally : ' Gallypot. ..." For tho' I am an Old Apothecary, I am but a Young Doctor. For I visit in either Capacity, either as an Old Apothecary, which is as good as a Young Doctor, or as a Young Doctor, and that's as good as t'other again." Trueinan. " But I thought you had left off Shop, and stuck only to your Doctorship ? " Gallypot. " So I do openly, but privately I keep a Shop, and side in all things with the Apothecaries against the Doctors." ' This allusion refers to a curious dissension which had arisen in the profession.
