 Augustus L. Morrill, M.D., whose office is at No. 152 Fourth street, San Francisco, has been a resident of California since 1878, and has been engaged in the practice of medicine since 1887.  He was born in Colima, Mexico, in 1865, and, though a native of Mexico, is of American parentage and of English descent.  His father, Augustus Morrill, has been a resident of Mexico for more than thirty years, engaged in the wholesale and retail drug business.  He was a native of New Hampshire; from 1869 to 1880 he was American Consul at Manzanillo.  The subject of this sketch received his early education in the public schools of Colima up to the age of thirteen years, after which he attended the Military Academy at Oakland for six years, graduating at that institution in 1884.  He then commenced the study of medicine in the medical department of the University of California, where he graduated in the class of 1887, after a full three years' course, and received his degree as Doctor of Medicine.  He was immediately appointed house surgeon of the City and County Hospital of San Francisco, which position he continued one year.  Next he spent almost one year in Mexico, and then returned to San Francisco, where he engaged in private practice in his present location.
