Dr. James C. Burlington graduated in 1877 from Cincinnati Medical College. Located at Attica in 1878. Died several years ago. Dr. A. L. Whitehall practiced near Newtown in 1832, and later at Attica until his death. Dr. Samuel Fullenwider at an early date practiced at New- town. Dr. Leach at one time practiced at At- tica; removed to Crawfordsville and later to Park County. Dr. George C. Hays located at Hillsboro and died there after a long practice. He was a graduate of the Medical College of Indiana. Dr. John W. Mock, a graduate of a medical college of Ohio, 1863, was a surgeon in the One Hundred and Eleventh Regiment, Ohio Volunteers.


Dr. Samuel J. Weldon was born in London, England, June, 1801, and graduated in New York City. He was well versed in medicine, a fine conversationalist and a prominent druggist.

He was present at the formation of the Indiana State Medical Society in 1849, and also at the organization of the Fountain County Medical Society in April, 1867. Died in 1881.


Dr. Samuel I. Mock graduated at the Medical College of Ohio in 1874; came to Covington in in 1879, and afterward removed to Iowa, where he died shortly afterward. Dr. C. D. Watson, a graduate of Rush Medical College, came to Cov- ington, was present at the organization of the Fountain County Medical Society, and afterward removed to California. Dr. John T. Wells prac- ticed in Veedersburg in 1876. Dr. A. J. McLel- land practiced at Veedersburg for some years and died in that village.


EARLY PHYSICIANS OF JACKSON COUNTY.


For the facts in the histories of the following physicians I am indebted to Dr. A. G. Osterman, of Seymour, Ind., the paper being forwarded to me by Dr. G. H. Kamman, Secretary of the Jackson County Medical Society.


The history of the early physicians of Jack- son County is not very well known. Tradition tells of Dr. Dudley, who located in this county and platted the village of Dudleytown in 1810. While the more populous parts of the county of that time, Vallonia and Brownstown, certainly had physicians, yet nothing authentic is known of their names.


Dr. Samuel Wert, of German parentage, was born in Pennsylvania in 1794; graduated from Jefferson Medical College in 1810; after an eventful career in the Spanish navy and in Mex-

ico, located in Brownstown in 1825, where he practiced successfully until 1863, the year of his death.


Dr. Solomon Jackson, the next physician of whom we hear, practiced in Rockford in 1835.


Drs. James Crippen and David Vanuise were at Reddington about 1838. The late Dr. Wilson located near the present village of Sparksville about the same time. Two more physicians were at Vallonia whose names are not known to the author. This was about the number of physi- cians who were located in the county up to 1840. With the increase of population between the for- ties and fifties physicians began to locate in the county.


Dr. James H. Green began practice in Dudley- town in 1846. Dr. Stage then located at what is now known as Sidney about the same time.


The first county society was organized on April 13, 1852. Dr. Wert was its first president, Dr. D. B. Hillis vice-president, Dr. J. L. Roe record- ing secretary, and Dr. E. Long librarian. Other members present were Drs. Ford, Morgan and Bain. At a meeting two months later Drs. John Williamson, James H. Green, C. T. Williamson, J. T. Monroe, E. D. Wert and S. H. Charlton were elected to membership.


Dr. Brand, a graduate of Vienna and a pupil of the elder Rokitansky, located at Rockford in 1848. Dr. Roesgen, a graduate of Heidelberg and Bonn, located at Dudleytown in 1851; both these men were well grounded in medicine and were gentlemen of remarkable diagnostic talents, who added credit to their profession, as well as

the profession of southern Indiana, during their sojourn among the people of Jackson County. These were all the members of the profession, as far as the author is able to say, that were lo- cated in the county up to 1852.


During the sixties Drs. Shoots and Rodman were at Freetown, Drs. Joseph Davis, Bain and Shields at Cortland, Dr. Fields at Tampico, Dr. Wells at Clear Spring, Drs. Cummings and Gib- son at Houston, Drs. John T. Shields, Newkirk and J. D. Monroe located at Seymour. Dr. Tinsh began the practice of medicine about the same time, but his first location is unknown. Dr. Robertson located at Vallonia, and a physician whose name is unknown practiced for a few years at what is now known as Newry.


At a meeting of the Board of County Commis- sioners in June, 1862, a petition referring to the pauper practice of the county was presented to the board, signed by the following physicians, then in active practice in the county, but not . all members of the county society : Drs. Wert, L. J. Stage, C. T. Williamson, L, Z. Shewmaker, Jacob Boaz, T. A. Williamson, J. H. Payne, Fields, Smith, Kimberline, Maxwell, Bland, Sap- per, Hatfield, Daniels, Ramsey, Robertson, Green and Bain. These men were all in active practice in this county.


In those days there were scarcely any well de- fined roads and patients were far apart. Visits were made on horseback and the ample saddle bags were always the badge of the doctor. It was before the days of refinement of pharmacy. Roots, herbs and barks were the armamentarium

of the practitioner. Calomel and jalap were dealt unsparingly. The bitter Peruvian bark and the lancet were their only fever remedies. An- esthesia was unknown; but this did not deter them from performing major and minor opera- tions. They worked sometimes under the most trying conditions. Those early days were truly heroic ones; no less for the physician than the patient. Yet, with all this seeming primitiveness and the limited means of practicing medicine and surgery, these men were successful and their patients lived to bless them. The earlier and older ones have all passed away. Some rest in unmarked graves. No lordly monuments com- memorate the spot made sacred as the resting place of these heroes; yet heroes these men were. They performed the most heroic service, and oftentimes without reward, at the call of their patients, at any hour, in storm and stress and in midnight darkness, with nothing to guide them, and oftentimes straying from the road or path; yet they performed these labors with pleas- ure and their reward was only the welfare and health of their patients. Truly they bore the cross to attain the crown ; the justice of a better world will be their reward.

CHAPTER XVI.


FORMATION AND GROWTH OF OUR PRESENT STATE MEDICAL ASSOCIATION .- LIST OF MEMBERSHIP FROM FORMATION TO THE YEAR 1860.


Inasmuch as but one or two copies of the early Transactions of our State Medical Society are known to be in existence, and these exposed to the dangers of fire or decay of time, I think it proper to reprint some historical data that ought not to be lost or forgotten .*


I have access to the copies in the Indianapolis City Library. These were generously presented to the library by Dr. L. D. Waterman on Dec. 1, 1898.


I find no evidence that a formal or informal call was made for the meeting to assemble at Indianapolis, but presume such a request had been made.t I quote as follows:


"The State Medical convention assembled in Wesley Chapel, at Indianapolis, on Wednesday, June 6, 1849, at 10 o'clock a. m. A temporary organization was effected by calling Dr. John


* Since 1904, "Society" is changed to "Association." t Since writing the above, I find that notice had been given for such a meeting : "Indianapolis had a local Medi- cal Society, and in May, 1849, a call was sent out by it for a State Convention the following month. Private letters were sent by the members to their medical friends over the State inviting them to attend the meeting to be held June 6, 1849." Dr. W. H. Wishard, President's ad- dress .- Trans. 1889, p. 17 .- G. W. II. K.

Sanders to the chair and appointing Dr. John S. Bobbs Secretary."


Some discussions have occurred as to who was the first President of the State Society, but that subject is easily determined by a reference to the Transactions .* The first copy shows the title page as follows: "Proceedings of the State Med- ical Convention of Indiana, held at Indianapolis, June, 1849. Indianapolis: Printed by John D. Defrees, 1849." It is a pamphlet of fourteen pages.


It will be observed that the meeting was styled "Convention," and not "Society." In fact, it was not regarded by those present as a regular meeting of the society, but rather an assembly for the organization of a state society. It was the Declaration of Independence for medical so- cieties in Indiana !


The title page of the second copy of Transac- tions reads quite differently: "Proceedings of the First Annual Meeting of the Indiana State Medical Society, held in the city of Indianapolis, May, 1850. Indianapolis: Printed by Elder & Harkness, 1850." This is a pamphlet containing thirty-two pages. It is styled a "Society" now, and is recorded as the "First." This is the be- ginning for numbering the other Transactions.


At the "convention" Dr. John H. Sanders was called temporarily to the chair. Later a perma-

Jour., Vol. xv, p. 515, also, "The First President of the Indiana State Medical Society .- Letters from Dr. Cornett's son, from the late Dr. John S. Bobbs (Dec. 10, 1849), and from Dr. Wm. A. Mac- Coy, of Madison, Ind."-Ib., Vol. xvi, p. 23.

nent organization was effected and Dr. Living- ston Dunlap was made permanent chairman. He delivered no address. At this meeting a commit- tee of one from each district represented was ap- pointed to nominate officers for the "society." Drs. Bullard, Kersey, Ryan, Florer and Mullen were appointed, who reported the following named gentlemen for the respective offices, to which the convention elected them: President, Dr. W. T. S. Cornett ; Vice-Presidents, Drs. Asa- bel Clapp, Nathan Johnson, Livingston Dunlap and Uriah Farquhar; Secretary, Dr. John S. Bobbs ; Treasurer, Dr. John L. Mothershead.


The society convened at Indianapolis on May 15, 1850. Dr. Cornett presided and gave an ad- dress on the subject, "Rise, Progress, Present State and Future Prospects of Medical Science." It was delivered in the evening at "candle light."


The following is a list of the names of physi- cians at the convention in 1849 :


Dr. Alexander J. Mullen, of Napoleon.


Dr. Nathan Johnson, of Cambridge City.


Dr. Vierling Kersey, of Milton, Wayne County.


Dr. Thomas W. Florer, of Alamo, Montgom- ery County.


Dr. John Hunt, of Madison County.


Dr. Townsend Ryan, of .Anderson.


Dr. R. J. Patterson, of Indianapolis.


Dr. David Hutchinson, of Mooresville, Morgan County.


Dr. Charles Wallace, of Belleville, Hendricks County.


Dr. W. R. Smith, of Cumberland.

On the second day, June 7, the committee on credentials reported favorably upon the following named persons, and they were admitted as mem- bers :


Drs. Asahel Clapp, John Sloan, S. E. Leonard, P. S. Shields, William Cooper, William G. Sinex, William A. Clapp, William A. Scribner and H. M. Dowling, of New Albany ; Chester G. Ballard, of Waveland; Henkle and Farquhar, of Wabash ; William F. Collum, of Jeffersonville; James S. Athon, of Charleston ; James S. Harrison, of In- dianapolis; Thomas W. Fry, James Tichnor, Jo- seph Allen and Oliver P. Mahan, of Crawfords- ville; George M. Huggins, of Darlington; Wil- liam J. Byers, of Frankfort; White, of Prairie- ville; John M.

liam T. S. Cornett, James K. Francis, Richard B. Conn and John Lewis, of Ripley County ; Isaac Finley and Homer T. Hinman, of Colum- bus; Wiley, of Richmond ; Foster, James D. Max- well and Robert C. Hamil, of Bloomington; S. Judkins and J. A. Pegg, of New Garden, Wayne County ; Joseph H. D. Rogers, William Davidson, Holcomb, J. W. Mullen and B. F. Mullen, of Napoleon ; Eldridge, Myron H. Harding, Taylor and Jonathan W. Gordon, of Dearborn County; Jeremiah H. Brower, of Lawrenceburg; John W. Moodey, John L. Armington and George W. New, of Greensburg; T. W. Cowgill, Albert G. Preston and H. E. Talbott, of Greencastle; Jo- seph C. Ardery, of Decatur County; Jefferson Helm, of Rush County, and Willis W. Hitt, of Vincennes.


The physicians named in the preceding para- graph came to the state convention on the second day and were received by credentials. Unfortu- nately, in the hurry and bustle of business, in almost every case the Christian name or initial was omitted. I have sent out numerous letters, besides a request in THE JOURNAL, for assistance in correcting the omissions. Inasmuch as they were present at the first meeting, I felt anxious to preserve their full names. I have succeeded in nearly all. I think some mistakes have occurred. Dr. T. C. Loukes, of Prairieton, has dili- gently sought for Dr. "White," accredited to Prairieville,* and is convinced that no phy- sician of that name resided there in 1849.


* In the August number of The Journal of the Indiana State Medical Association, Dr. White was erroneously ac- credited to "Prairieton," instead of "Prairieville." The latter was in Clinton county, and was discontinued as a . postoffice Aug. 9, 1856.

"Sloan" of Crawfordsville appears in the minutes erroneously for Dr. John Sloan of New Albany. I am of the opinion that there are other errors of location. The minutes show the names of eighty- four persons present at this convention.


Sixty years have passed since that body of grand men met in Indianapolis and laid the foundation for our present efficient State Med- ical Association. Only two of that number are alive today, Dr. Patrick H. Jameson, born in Jefferson County, Indiana, April 18, 1824, and Dr. William H. Wishard, born in Nicholas Coun- ty, Kentucky, Jan. 17, 1816. Both are residents of Indianapolis.


I am sure that the entire medical profession of Indiana will unite with me in paying this little tribute of respect to these honored men.


At this preliminary meeting a number of prac- tical questions were discussed and acted upon. One was the expediency of establishing a medical journal, and Drs. George W. Mears, Vierling Kersey and Robert Curran were appointed a committee to report some definite action. It was several years before a journal was created, but their action was helpful.


Again, Dr. R. J. Patterson offered the follow- ing resolution, which was adopted :


Resolved, That a committee of five be appointed to memorialize the Legislature of the state, upon the sub- ject of Homicidal Insanity-asking the enactment of a law requiring that in all cases where the plea of in- sanity is set up as an excuse for crime, the question of insanity shall be first and separately tried and decided by a commission of lunacy.


Also, on motion of Dr. John H. Sanders, it was


149


MEDICAL HISTORY OF INDIANA.


Resolved, That a committee of five be appointed to memorialize the Legislature, asking them to provide by law for a registration of marriages, births and deaths.


The good seed sown by those early pioneer physicians has borne fruit, and they deserve praise for their forethought.


The state society had not long been in existence until death entered. At the session of 1850 Dr. John H. Sanders, who had acted as temporary chairman at the first convention, had passed away (April 4, 1850), also Dr. T. W. Cowgill, and the following resolution was passed (Trans- actions 1850, page 7) :


Resolved, That as a society we sincerely feel the loss we have sustained in the recent death of John H. San- ders, M.D., of Indianapolis, and T. W. Cowgill, M.D., of Greencastle.


The society early recognized the necessity for a high standard of preparation for those desiring to enter the profession, as shown by resolution, 1850, page 9:


Resolved, That this society recommend to the mem- bers of all local societies, and the profession through- out the state, that they do not receive students into their offices for a less term than three years, including the usual term of public pupilage, and that they re- quire a fee for office instruction, and the use of books, of not less than $100, and that preceptors should in- stitute frequent examination of their pupils.


It was further resolved that a broad line of distinction between scientific medicine and the various forms of empiricism in vogue in our country should be plainly marked and seen. Phy- sicians were urged to exert their influence with newspaper publishers and druggists to prevail upon them to withhold their aid to such impos-


150


MEDICAL HISTORY OF INDIANA.


ture. And they had their troubles in the good old days !


The importance of keeping accurate notes of all important cases and epidemic diseases which might come under their observation was urged upon physicians. This was fifty-nine years ago, and is still applicable to all young physicians of the present day. By all means, young men, keep a case-book. The writer was impressed with this advice when, more than forty years ago, he heard the older Austin Flint make the assertion that his success in medicine had largely been due to the fact that throughout his life he had kept a case-book.


The society also stood firmly for the code of ethics and all the principles that it inculcated.


Another resolution introduced at this meeting (1850) is applicable at the present day (page 8) :


Resolved, That it is expedient for the members of our profession to avail themselves of all suitable occasions to deliver popular lectures on the grand principles of physiology, on which the theory of practice in medicine is instituted, with the view of instructing the public mind and popularizing the regular system of medicine.


Also at this meeting they grappled with prob- lems that, for the sake of science, we all regret they left undetermined :


Resolved, That a committee be appointed by the president to collect, in a systematized form, facts on the duration of pregnancy and the causes which influ- ence sex.


The eleventh annual session of the state so- ciety was held at Indianapolis, May 17 and 18, 1860. On page 62 of that year's Transactions may be found a list of the members of the Indi- ana State Medical Society, with a statement that "This list includes the names of all who have


151


MEDICAL HISTORY OF INDIANA.


been members of the society since its organiza- tions." This is not quite correct, for I have dis- covered more than a dozen names which have been doubtless accidentally omitted and have added them to the list. I have also corrected some typographical errors, and in a number of instances supplied the Christian name where I found only an initial letter. As the society was eleven years old at the time of the publication of this list, and there are about 329 names of phy- sicians who were then active in professional life and who now, after half a century has elapsed, deserve this slight recognition, I have decided to reproduce their names.


Comparing the location year by year of these physicians, I was impressed with the large num- ber who had changed their residences in the short period of eleven years, showing a desire for better surroundings. Nearly all "have fallen asleep." Alas, how few would answer to their names at a roll-call today! I think the living could be numbered upon the fingers of two, if not one, hand.


"And the names we loved to hear Have been carved for many a year on the tomb."
