Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Reply to a Pamphlet by S. Henry Dickson, M. D. Entitled Statements, &C
Dr. Wagner was elected by three votes. We will not be so indelicate as to mention the disparaging terms which were then used by his present colleagues of him, nor the indignation which Dr. Wagner then felt against them. But this we will say, that he cons1dered himself as injured by the opposition which the Fa culty made against him; because he had many years served as Demonstrator of Anatomy, as well as Professor of Pathological and Surgical Anatomy, (a chair, which gave no right to a seat with the Faculty, and the lectures of which the Students were not compelled to attend) and he therefore considered that he had a claim to be promoted to the Chair of Surgery. It is amusing, too, to see how changed is the tone of Dr. Dickson in relation to Dr. Wagner a circumstance which shews pretty clearly that men often times form their friendships and their hates as interest points 2 But to the quotation.
