Book Description

Excerpt from The Chicago Medical Journal and Examiner, Vol. 47: July to December, 1883 Gentlemen of the American Medical Association Permit me to express my feelings of gratitude for the unexpected honor con ferred upon me at the last meeting of the association, and to cherish the hope that in fulfilling the duties of this responsible position, I may be sustained by your cordial co-operation. We meet here to engage earnestly in furthering the interests and ob jects of the medical profession. We have come together from all parts of our broad country, charged with these great responsi bilities. It is fitting to express here deep regret at the absence from our councils of delegates from the Medical Society of New York. Let us hope that this absence may be only temporary, and that at the next meeting every state may be represented.
