3 WJTS Sir William John Thompson Slides Collection [1910s-1920s] 4 boxes A collection of glass lantern slides belonging to Sir William John Thompson, the majority created [for him] by Thomas Holmes Mason. The slides are statistical in nature, dealing with Irish censuses, birth and marriage rates, and diseases frequency and mortality rates.

Thompson supported Lady Aberdeen in her campaign against Tuberculosis in Ireland, as well as a number of other public health campaigns and societies.
