Book Description
Excerpt from An Introductory Lecture, Delivered at the Opening of the Forty-Eight Course of Lectures in the Medical College of Ohio, 1857 We have convened this evening for the purpose Of opening in due form, the thirty-eighth course of lectures in the Med ical College of Ohio. Allow me, gentlemen, in the name of the faculty, to welcome you to this institution, and to give you the voluntary pledge, that it will be our most ardent desire to promote your welfare, while you sojourn among us. The Medical College of Ohio bears an ancient and honor able name. For thirty-seven years she has stood before the profession, and now has her numerous alumni scattered throughout the West and South. Her faculty, at various periods, has embraced many of the ablest men Of our country, - few schools indeed can exhibit a brighter galaxy in years gone by, than this. The names of Drake, Eberle, Locke, Mussey, Moorhead, Harrison, Shotwell, Cobb, were chief among those who made a name and reputation for this school, equal to any of her Sister institutions. But many of these jewels of our profession have, in the fullness of time, been gathered to their final homes. Drake, Eberle, Shotwell, Harrison, Locke, have passed to that un discovered country, from whose bourne no traveler returns. The pendant boughs of the weeping willow point in sorrowing silence to the oblivion of the tomb but the fame Of those we loved and honored, lives on fresh in the great heart of our profession.

Book Description
Excerpt from An Introductory Lecture, Delivered in the Medical College of Ohio: Session 1860-1 It has been an established custom for the Dean, or some other member of the Faculty, at the commencement of a course of medical lectures, to address the class upon any subject which might seem appropriate to the occasion. I endeavored to convince my colleagues that an address from some one of them would be more acceptable than from my self; but, they would neither acknowledge the force of my arguments, nor lay aside their native modesty. I do not propose to discuss any branch or special subject in medicine. But, as some of us will be associated during the four long months that are before us, it may not be nu profitable to consider for a short time our individual and rel ative duties. The professor and the student have both a laborious task before them, requiring not only the constant exercise of their reasoning faculties, but a pleasurable state of feeling and-an unfaltering will. To stop by the way side and talk with the adventurer about the land of gold, and count the many miles that may intervene, will prove to be an ineffectual way to se cure its treasures. The student in pursuit of knowledge is in a similar situation. He has a thousand obstacles to over come, requiring industry, patience, and a resolute purpose. It is a common remark, that while the physician is dis charging his duty, he is engaged ih a conflict with death. Such a claim in behalf of the profession we should esteem the height of presumption. When that grim messenger comes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Introductory Lecture Delivered Before the Medical Class in Castleton Medical College, at the Opening of the Fall Session, 1842 To prepare you to think correctly, and thus theorize for yourselves, it will be necessary to review the ancient and modern doctrines of general and special medicine, including the theories which have successively had their day among medical philosophers. These with the facts by which they were attempted to be sustained by their authors and adherents, will constitute the ground-work of the pres ent course. In this brief and cursory view of the past, which is all that our time will permit, you will find that much, very much which is true in medicine is as old as Hippocrates, many of his theories having been based upon observation and experience, and being there fore of necessity immutable. His errors were few and inconsidera ble, even as discoverable in the advanced state of our knowledge at this day, notwithstanding the disadvantages under which he pur sued his researches, ia ignorance of human structure, except so far as it could be revealed to him by the dissection of inferior animals. Under these circumstances we are constrained at this day to marvel, not at his errors, but that he could, by possibility, have acquired the knowledge, of which his writings give evidence. All modern physicians at the present day regard Anatomy, healthy and morbid, as constituting the elements of all the accuracy to which we can attain in medicine, and their theories are constructed by studying symptoms in reference to such anatomy, and by testing the powers of remedies by experience. It is upon facts such as these, that our science is now made rigidly one of induction. Simi lar facts have been accumulating for centuries, and as they are tan gible in their character, and susceptible of demonstration by every inquirer for himself, the constancy of their recurrence in the hands and under the eye of every observer, affords a protection against any considerable error or fallacy.
