Transactions, 1852, p. 65. An unmarried woman aged 46, during the summer of 1850, discovered a tumor in the abdomen. It grew rapidly until paracen- tesis was resorted to, and forty pounds of fluid removed. The tumor rapidly refilled, and was tapped several times. Death closed the scene in September, 1851. A post mortem revealed an ovarian tumor with a small pedicle, showing an excellent case for an early operation, but the opportunity was not grasped. Such conditions could hardly exist at the present day.
In the Transactions for 1853, pp. 24-57, Drs. W. H. Byford, M. H. Harding, and J. N. Graham contributed an interesting report on the "Practice of Medicine." The topography of several counties in eastern Indiana is given, and the reports on the early appearance of typhoid fever in this state as given by Drs. Woody, of Winchester, Harding of Lawrenceburg, Shields of New Albany, Kersey of Milton, Crooks and DeBruler of Rockport, are historical and instructive. In this same article, also, are included notes on epidemic ery- sipelas, dysentery, and various forms of malarial fever. At that early day the value of quinin was recognized and acknowledged.
At the session of 1853, Dr. J. H. Brower, who had been appointed at the previous session, a committee on vital statistics made a report, Transactions, 1853, p. 74, in which he urged the adoption of legal enact- ments requiring the registration of marriages, births and deaths. It is to be regretted that these sug- gestions were allowed to slumber for more than one third of a century.
Dr. M. J. Bray, in the Transactions, 1853, p. 94, reports the successful removal of a fibrous tumor, from the face and neck of a male patient, which weighed twenty-one pounds. Most of the incision healed by the first intention, without a marked scar. Dr. Bray also contributes an article that might be read with profit at the present day, on "Symptoms, Causes, Pathology and Treatment of Scirrhus," Transactions, 1854, pp. 25-42.

MEDICAL HISTORY OF INDIANA.
Dr. George Sutton, of Aurora, Transactions, 1853, pp. 109-175, contributes a valuable historical paper on "Asiatic Cholera," as it prevailed in Indiana during the years 1849-50-51-52. He details its progress from New Orleans, up the Mississippi and Ohio rivers, until June, 1849, when it appeared in several Indiana towns situated on the Ohio river. He gives reports of its ravages in thirty-six counties of Indiana. The same author makes a valuable report on "Cholera." Transactions, 1867, p. 85, and Transactions, 1868, p. 51.
Milk sickness was prevalent in Indiana half a cen- tury or more ago. Dr. George Sutton, of Aurora, made a preliminary report on the subject. Trans- actions, 1853, p. 176. Dr. James S. McClelland, of Jefferson, Clinton County, made a more extensive report on the disease "Trembles or Milk Sickness," in Transactions, 1854, p. 43. Still later, Dr. E. S. Elder, of Morristown, contributed an exhaustive paper on the subject, "Morbo Lacteo," Transactions, 1874, pp. 113- 127.
Dr. William W. Mayo, of Lafayette (father of the Mayo brothers, of Rochester, Minn.), contributes, Transactions, 1854, p. 68, an interesting "Report on the Pathological Indications of the Urine," which shows a good degree of skill in studying the urine at that early day. Dr. Mayo says, "The kidneys are not secreting organs." In a foot note the committee on publication dissent from this statement.
Nursing sore mouth (stomatitis materna) is an affection that was discussed half a century ago, more than at the present day. Dr. J. S. McClelland con- tributes an article on the subject in Transactions for 1856, p. 48. It was thought to prevail as an epidemic in certain localities. The entire alimentary canal was involved to a less or greater extent, anemia was marked, digestion was disturbed, and death occurred in a majority of the cases. Nursing women, and women during the last months of pregnancy were subjects of the disease.

Dr. David Hutchinson, of Mooresville, in 1857, wrote the Fiske Fund Prize Essay on the subject, receiving one hundred dollars from the state of Rhode Island for the same. It was published in the Ameri- can Journal of the Medical Sciences, vol. xxxiv, p. 369 (October, 1857) .
Dr. Daniel Meeker, of Laporte, contributed three articles on the subject, "On Fractures and False Joints." Transactions, 1857, p. 29; 1858, p. 40, and 1859, p. 34. These are valuable articles, and can be read with profit, although written half a century ago.
Dr. Jacob R. Weist, of Richmond, contributes to the Transactions for 1867, p. 70, a carefully prepared paper on "Foreign Bodies in the Air Passages." Prof. S. D. Gross, in 1854, published a valuable paper based on a study of 153 cases. Dr. Weist followed Prof. Gross and collected 163 cases, and tabulated them as follows: Cases of spontaneous expulsion followed by recovery, 61; cases of death without operation, and without the expulsion of the foreign body, 20; cases of tracheotomy, followed by the expulsion of the foreign body and the recovery of the patient, 48; cases of tracheotomy followed by death, 19; cases of laryngotomy, followed by the expulsion of the foreign body and the recovery of the patient, 10; cases of laryngo-tracheotomy, followed by the expulsion of the foreign body and the recovery of the patient, 5. No more valuable paper on this subject has been pub- lished.
Dr. Weist also contributed a Prize Essay on Cerebro- Spinal Meningitis, Transactions, 1868, p. 123.
One of the most remarkable operations in the annals of surgery, was performed by an Indiana surgeon, the late Dr. John S. Bobbs, of Indiana. It was the first operation for cholecystotomy, and was performed on June 15, 1867. The original paper was published in the Transactions for 1868, p. 68, and was entitled, "Case of Lithotomy of the Gall-Bladder." The repro- duction of the report of this case, and numerous com- ments on it in recent medical literature renders it unnecessary to say more concerning it in this place.

The patient, Mrs. Z. Burnsworth, nee Miss Wiggins, at this date (1911), is still living, at the age of 74 years, at McCordsville, Indiana. She was the first person operated on for gall stones. The operation was done June 15, 1867, at Indianapolis, on the present site of the Commercial Club Building. Dr. John S. Bobbs was the operator, and was assisted by Drs. R. N. Todd, G. W. Mears, F. S. Newcomer, J. A. Comingor, J. P. Avery, Moore, and a medical

In that paper, written one-third of a century ago, and while the advis- ability of such an operation was in doubt, Dr. Kemper said :
"It is a pleasing duty to pay this small tribute to the memory of our departed fellow and brother. While several European and American surgeons are discussing the feasibility and priority of the operation of cholecys-
