Description: A photograph of the old rectory on the former grounds of Trinity College School in Weston, Ontario, where William Osler was a student from 1866-1867. The rectory was at that time the residence of the Rev. William Arthur Johnson, the founder of the school, who exerted a great influence on Osler in his youth, encouraging his interest in natural history (biology). It was this interest that eventually steered Osler away from a career in the Church and towards one in medicine. The rectory was torn down many years later, after the tenancy of William Colgate, who presented this photo to the Osler Library.
