Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Yellow Fever Prophylaxis in New Orleans, 1905
I find it very difficult to thank individually the very large group of friends who shewed me so much kindness and gave me so much assistance whilst I stayed in New Orleans. I am deeply indebted to Dr. White, who was in charge of the campaign, _to Dr. Warner, Chairman of the Ward Organisations, to Dr. Le Boeuf, the Chairman, and to his Colleagues on the Medical Advisory Committee, -and to Mr. Behrman, Mayor of New Orleans. I was brought in contact almost daily with and received great help from the members 'of Dr. White's staff, and I tender to them my sincere thanks.
I am especially indebted to Dr. Richardson for much advice and assistance. I wish especially to thank my friend Dr. Paul Archinard, who allowed me the use of his laboratory, as also Drs. Matas, Pothier, Jones, Guthrie, Beyer, Perkins and Marks. I beg also to thank, for much valuable assistance, Mr. Janvier, President of the Yellow Fever Fund, Dr. Kohnke, President of the New Orleans Board of Health, Dr. Souchon, President of the State Board of Health, and the Secretary, Dr. Paton. For much personal kindness during my stay in New Orleans, I beg to thank Mr. Le Blanc, Mr. Liversedge, of the Elder, Dempster Company, the Manager of the United Fruit Company, Mr. Donnelly, the Acting British Consul, and many others who all contributed to make my stay in New Orleans of profit. For figures 2 and 6-11 I am indebted to Dr. White.
