Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Public Health Papers and Reports, Vol. 7: Presented at the Ninth Annual Meeting of the American Public Health Association, (Savannah, Ga., Nov. 28 to Dec. 3), 1881; With an Abstract of the Records of Proceedings
To one then present it is pleasant to note that its members number seven hundred, and that aided by a fortunate combination of circumstances, nearly four hundred members were in attendance at the meeting at New Orleans. Of those present at that meeting of organization, which we now see was so important and Opportune, two are dead, - Carl Pfeifer, Esq., civil engineer and architect, and Dr. John M. Woodworth, late Surgeon general of the United States Marine Hospital Service. Had they done no other worthy work, their prescience, and interest, and practical part in form ing this Association, would be monumental.
It is my official and sad duty to announce the death during the past year of Dr. George S. Blackie, Nashville, Tenn. Dr. Greensville Dowell, Gal veston, Texas Dr. W. C. W. Glazier, United States Marine Hospital Ser vice; Dr. E. Lloyd Howard, Baltimore, Md. Dr. L. S. Joynes, Richmond, Va. Dr. Charles H. Smith, Richmond, Va. Dr. E. M. Wight, Chattanooga, Tenn.
