Logan was elected one of the Surgeons to the Leeds Infirmary , where he became the colleague of that eminent and excellent man , the late William Hey , Esq ., F . R . S ., who may be called the founder of that institution ; bat it was owing to the united talent and exertion of these two men that it became so
