Excerpt from A Lecture, Introductory to the Course of Lectures in the Medical Institution of Yale College, September 29, 1853By the death of Dr. Smith, the chair of Theory and Prac tice of Medicine and of Surgery was made vacant. Dr. Ives was transferred to the former, while that of Surgery was filled by the appointment to the place of Thomas Hubbard, M. D Dr. Hubbard, then residing in Pomfret, had been long known as the most active, efficient and successful Surgeon in the eastern part of the State. This position he had attained by his own industry and great energy of character, with few advantages of early education. His connection with the School was hap py and successful. His long experience, together with his great industry in gathering trom the writings of those who had preceded him all that was known of surgery, rendered his lectures in a high degree instructive and interesting, while his force and integrity of character gained for him the respect Of the students, and of the profession. At his decease in 1838, the department of Surgery devolved upon the one who now occupies it. In 1839, William Tully, M. D., extensively known for his acquaintance with Materia Medica, and especially with the indigenous medical plants, was appointed Professor of Ma teria Medica, in which othee he continued until his resignation in 1842. The place thus vacated was filled by Henry Bronson.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
