This justly celebrated American physician, who achieved an international reputation because of his skill as a pathologist and diagnostician, passed away on Feb. 10, 1911, at the age of 70. His medical course, which he commenced in 1860 at the College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York, was interrupted by the civil war, in which he took part as an acting medical cadet. He later graduated from the above institution and at once established himself in New York City where he continued in active practice almost up to the time of his death. His career was one of rapid advancement and it has been given to but few physicians to embrace and so thoroughly take advantage of the many opportunities afford-ed him for both public and private service. As teacher, author, sanitary authority, and hospital attendant and consultant he became widely known and justly famous. Probably no other physician in the Easter Section of our country was so often sought after as diagnostician and consult-ant among all classes of people and by his pro-fessional colleagues generally. HIs loss will no doubt be seriously felt by his patients, by the many physicians who have been accustomed to call upon him for advice and assistance, as well as by the many public hospitals and institutions with which he was connected and to which he devoted so much of his valuable time.
