Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Address Before the College of Physicians and Surgeons at Their Annual Commencement: March 14th, 1867
I feel myself much honored in being permitted to address, on this distinguished occasion, the College of Physicians and Surgeons in the City of New York. It is a privilege as well as a duty, for the learned professions whenever opportunity offers to interchange expressions of sympathy and good-fellowship in the presence of the public; to testify to the esteem in which they hold each other, and to unite more closely in resisting the ?ood of suspicion or depreciation, which in the very nature of things ever threatens the more recondite studies and occult interests of society.
