Cabinet belonged to William Arthur Johnson (1816-1880) and might have been made by him. The University Health Network's (UHN) notes about the cabinet indicate that the "display caption" indicated that the cabinet was made by Johnson, however, this is not confirmed. His son, Dr Arthur Jukes Johnson (1848-1921) and Sir William Osler (1849-1919), used the cabinet to make, record and store their microscope slide collection. - Function
