Sinopsis
Excerpt from An Address Introductory to a Course of Lectures, at the College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York: Session of 1850 51; Thursday, November 7, 1850
I graduated in the year 1806, a student of the Medical Faculty of Columbia College, in this city, at that time the only Medical School, and which had then existed for many years. It was originally called King's College, but at the close of the war, received the name of Columbia College, and the organiza tion of its Medical Faculty was completed in 1792. The Faculty at the time of my attendance, was con stituted as follows The President, and Professor of Anatomy and Surgery, was Dr. Wright Post; Dr. D. Hosack occupied the chair of Materia Medica and Botany; Dr. Hamersley, that of the Institutes and Practice; Dr. Stringham, that of Chemistry; and Dr. J. R. B. Rogers, that of Midwifery and the Diseases of Women and Children.

Excerpt from An Address Introductory to a Course of Lectures, at the College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York: Session of 1850 51; Thursday, November 7, 1850
Gentlemen:
Before I proceed to deliver the remarks introductory to the few lectures which I am to deliver to you, I cannot refrain from expressing the satisfaction I feel in once again addressing the class of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, as one of its Professors, nor from acknowledging the kindness of my present Colleagues, of the Trustees and Regents, who have so willingly conferred upon me the rank which enables me to assume the responsible duty of instructing you. A considerable period of time has elapsed since my last connection with its Faculty ceased; and if, during that time, I have been placed in the position of an opponent to its success, believe me to be candid in saying that I have witnessed its successful struggles against powerful competition with pleasure, and with all the interest and enthusiasm of an Alumnus, for such, almost, I am, have marked its gradual progress in usefulness, and in the esteem and favor of the profession. Among its Professors and Trustees are many of my oldest and most valued friends and pupils, and I should be callous to the best feelings of our nature, could I reflect upon my past connection with this School, and not rejoice in its prosperity, or feel pleasure in. my re-association with its interests and occupations.
