Hello,

I found info written by Rudi Butt about an American dentist, Varnum David Collins, who trained Kwan Yuen Cheong in dentistry and gave him his dental kit upon retirement, circa 1857.  I have not been able to verify his findings. I emailed him but have not received a reply.  Does anyone know if Rudi Butt is still living?
