Chew p. 233 ' In 1823 a Physician named Julius Millingen went out to Greece to offer his services in a professional capacity to the revolutionary government. His plan came to nothing, and he opened a dispensary at Missolonghi. There he attended Byron inn his last illness... Though he testifies to Byron's many good qualities and pronounces himself 'incapable of enumerating the faults of one, from whom I received so many marks of kindness,' Millingen's book contains no new information according to Edgcumbe in The Athenaeum December 1901
