PREFACE
Bloomington, Illinois, May 8, 1934
To The McLean County Medical Society:
Dear Doctors: Agreeable to your request, the committee consisting of J. Whitefield Smith, A. W. Meyer, and J. H. Fenelon, appointed to write a brief biographical sketch of the members of the McLean County Medical Society whose names have been enrolled during the past thirty (30) years, together with the names of other physicians and surgeons who have practiced medicine in McLean County, who were not members of the society, have the honor to present the following report :
Thirty years ago (1904), Dr. Charles R. Parke, one of the McLean County Medical Society's well known surgeons, who was a charter member of the society, was asked to prepare a history of the organiza- tion, and write a biographical sketch of its members, during the fifty (50) years of its progress. Dr. Parke, though living in Louisville, Ky. at the time, undertook the task with great earnestness, and fidelity of purpose; and gave us a comprehensive and concise history of the medical society, during the first half century of its existence. The society will always be grateful and appreciative for this valuable service.
The report which is hereby submitted is the result of a persistent effort to gather all the data available in order that we might continue the history of the McLean County Medical Society over a period of the last thirty (30) years to the present time (1934). We realize that there are unavoidable errors and mistakes in this tabulation. However, the committee has endeavored to fulfill its obligation, from the informa- tion obtainable, at least, in an acceptable manner. We desire to thank the members of the society and all of those who have assisted in the collection of the data, for their cooperation which has, in a large measure, made this history possible.

THE MCLEAN COUNTY MEDICAL SOCIETY
1854 - 1934
In the march of civilization, history records the steps of our progress.
The history of the McLean County Medical Society is an interesting chapter in the growth and development of the history of the county. A quarter of a century before the organization of the Society, we find the pioneer physicians, true to the spirit of their profession, striving to protect the lives, the health, and the happiness of the early settlers. Not only this, but we find them assisting in the various organizations of the local government, and engaged in the development of the insti- tutional life of the community.
The lives of the pioneer physicians were characterized by a rugged simplicity, a resolute spirit, and an untiring energy. These men were courageous, chivalrous, resourceful. They were men of sterling qualities. It is not a matter of wonder or surprise that the McLean County Medical Society, born of such lives and characters, should occupy such an important place in the history of the county during the past years. Such was its heritage. The spirit of the pioneer physicians has been impressed on the medical profession of this county for at least three generations.
Since the organization of the society in the spring of 1854, its members have kept pace with the progress of medicine and surgery. The growth of the society has been contemporaneous with the great discoveries in medical science for nearly a century. The McLean County Medical Society has been honored many times by the capable services of its members; not alone for their professional qualifications, but for the public services its members have rendered the county, state, and nation. Some have served in the State Legislature; one has been ap- pointed United States Consul; many have served as presidents of the Illinois State Medical Society; others were superintendents, or chief medical directors in a number of our state institutions; while others have held official positions on the State Board of Health.
As we look backward, we behold a galaxy of distinguished men and women of this society upholding the banners of the profession. We see the chaplets of their victories, the garlands of their triumphs, the laurels of their achievements. They have served their day and gen- eration. We cherish their memory, and desire to perpetuate their names in the records of this brief history. And, as we look forward, we see their mantles falling upon a group of younger physicians; for we take up our work where others have labored and toiled - we lay it down for another to take up. The continued progress and success of the McLean County Medical Society will be determined, largely, by its heritage from the past, and by the attainments of its physicians and surgeons of today. When another chapter of its history is written, it will be of more interest and value, because of the larger opportunities, the greater accomplishments, and the grander achievements that will be made in the future, which appear already on the horizon of the present day.

THE EIGHTIETH ANNIVERSARY AND BANQUET of The McLean County Medical Society May Eighth 1934
Thirty years ago, the McLean County Medical Society celebrated its "Golden Jubilee" (April 7, 1904). This evening (May 8, 1934) the Society gathered into the banquet hall of the Illinois Hotel on a similar occasion. The Doctors at that time were accompanied by their wives and a number of friends, and after the banquet an interesting program was furnished by the entertainment committee.
On this event, the eightieth anniversary of the Society, the Doctors, their wives, and invited guests enjoyed the entertainment and the banquet which was served at the Illinois Hotel. The banquet room was beautifully decorated for the occasion. Frequent reference was made to the Golden Jubilee many years ago -
"O years gone down into the past, what pleasant memories come to me."
Dr. James C. McNutt, president of the McLean County Medical Society, acted as toastmaster. After a short business session, he intro- duced several of the members of the Society, who spoke in an interesting manner on the object, the work, and the achievements of the Society.
The honor guest and principal speaker of the evening was Dr. Logan Clendening of Kansas City, Missouri.
Not all of the members of the Society were present at this anni- versary: the names of all the members of the Society are printed below, in order to keep a record of the membership at this time (1934).
