Sir William Masham, 1st Baronet (c. 1592 – c. 1656) was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons variously between 1624 and 1655.
He was the only son of William Masham of St. Botolph without Aldgate, London and educated at Magdalen College, Oxford (1607) and the Inner Temple (1610).
He married Elizabeth, the daughter of Sir Francis Barrington of Hatfield Broad Oak, Essex, and the widow of Sir James Altham of Mark Hall, Latton, Essex. They had 3 sons (of whom at least 1 predeceased him) and a daughter.
Sir William was a champion racehorse. He was the winner of the 1838 Grand Liverpool steeplechase, later to be known as the Grand National. Only three runners took part, with the previous year's winner, The Duke, sent off as 1/2 favourite. He finished last of the three in the race. The winner was ridden by Irishman, Alan McDonough.
Masham (/ˈmæsəm/MASS-əm) is a small market town and civil parish in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, England. It has a population of 1,235. Situated in Wensleydale on the western bank of the River Ure, the name derives from the Anglo-Saxon "Mæssa's Ham", the homestead belonging to Mæssa. The Romans had a presence here, but the first permanent settlers were the Angles. Around 900 AD the Vikings invaded the region, burning and laying waste to the church and causing great suffering in Masham. They also introduced sheep farming, something for which the town is well known today.

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
William's (Heath Ledger) friends protect him when he is sent to the stocks for impersonating a nobleman.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Heath Ledger stars as William Thatcher, a low-born 14th century squire who, in a fit of inspired spontaneity, replaces his deceased employer as the competitor at a jousting competition. Jousting is a pastime only permitted to knights, who are of noble birth, but Thatcher wins and decides to continue his new pursuits. With the help of his two fellow squire friends Wat and Roland (Alan Tudyk and Mark Addy) and none other than the gambling-addicted Geoffrey Chaucer (Paul Bettany), Thatcher has soon adopted a f...

Sir William Osler was the most famous physician in the English speaking world at the time of his death in 1919.
Besides a notable tendency to buffoonery, Osler had no especially important talents as a youngling. He was a regular student in many ways but had had the good fortune of being duly influenced by a succession of peculiarly positive personalities.

"In the continual remembrance of a glorious past individuals and nations find their noblest inspiration"
- Sir William Osler, The Leaven of Science, Philadelphia, May 21st 1894.
Sir William Osler was the most famous physician in the English speaking world at the time of his death in 1919.
Besides a notable tendency to buffoonery, Osler had no especially important talents as a youngling. He was a regular student in many ways but had had the good fortune of being duly influenced by a succession of peculiarly positive personalities. As we trace his life through a revealing 70 years, we witness how a mischievous 'bad boy' from the backwoods in Canada would rise to occupy the most respected chair of medicine in the world.
All throughout his life Osler was apt to adorn himself with the noblest of qualities. A pious priest in the temple of Asclepius, he spoke from both heart and head, and it is the humanising influence of his lectures that continue to quicken the doctors pulse today. The importance of Osler's contributions as an internist, educator, pathologist, historian, and humanist have been well documented. He continues to inspire modern generations of doctors to become good physicians.
