Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Introduction and Progress of Homoeopathy in the United States: An Inaugural Address Before the Homoeopathic Medical Society of the County of New York, Delivered April 11th, 1864
I thank you for the honor you have bestowed on me, and the proof of your esteem and confidence, in the choice of myself for the chief officer of your society. In compliance with a rule of the society, you meet at this time to receive an address from me by virtue of my office as President. I propose to show what Homopathy is as developed by Hahnemann, and give a brief history of its Introduction and Progress in America. The subject is of value to sci ence generally, to the medical profession specially, and to the people universally. It requires accuracy and exactness in the statement of its facts; and as individuals must be spoken of almost at every step, it requires a rigid sense of justice, a strict regard to truth, clearness of perception, impartiality in judgment, and preper terms of expression, to avoid detraction on, the one hand, and too high praise on the other.
