" Three instructors have died, viz. : Drs. Ingalls, Richard- son, and Robinson.
" Dr. Theodore Ingalls died of apoplexy in 1857, after only a few months' connection with the school. In this short time he had endeared himself to both students and colleagues. After a long and extensive practice in Bridg- ton and vicinity, he removed to Portland a few years before his death, being at the time in feeble health. Dr. Ingalls was a very able practitioner and influential man, command- ing the respect and confidence of all who knew him.
"Dr. Wentworth R. Richardson, after two years' connec- tion with the school, entered the navy in July, 1861, serv- ing with honor till his death at Key West, in 1864. He was a young man of great promise, an earnest and enthusi- astie student, an accomplished physician, and a generous and honorable man. He died, loved and mourned by many friends.
". Dr. William Chaffee Robinson was one of the founders of this school, and an instructor in it up to the time of his death. He was born in Chaplain, Conn., Nov. 27, 1822. The carly years of his life were spent on his father's farm, with no greater educational opportunities than those afforded by the ' district school.' Originally endowed with a strong and active intellect and powerful will, he improved to the

WILLIAM C. ROBINSON, M.D., was born in the town of Chaplin, Conn., Nov. 27, 1822. His early years were spent roughing it upon an obscure farm, with no special opportuni- ties for obtaining an education other than those afforded by the district schools of the time; but here, through the com- bined influence of both farm and school, he received that thorough training of self-reliance, perseverance, and fortitude which in after-life developed in such a remarkable degree. As youth ripened into manhood his vigorous and ambitious nature led him to seek new fields and enlarged opportunities. With such aspirations, at an early age he commenced teaching a public school in the city of Norwich, and at once became pop- ular by strict attention to the dutics of the vocation and hy his social nature. About this time, in the years 1845-46, he com- menced his medical studies with Dr. John Ford, whose exten- sive practice in that city gave him fine opportunities. His medical pupilage was characterized by close application, keen conception, and rapid advancement, and at its close he was clothed with the honors of the University of New York, taking his degree in the class of 1849.
Through the earnest solicitation of a musical friend by the same name, he immediately came to Portland, and opened his office on the corner of Middle and Union Streets, where the Falmouth Hotel now stands. At this time but seven physicians (regular graduates) were engaged in active practice in the city. He very soon held the appointment of city physician, but it was a long and arduous struggle to establish himself in a good paying business. That class, so well known to young prac- titioners in medicine, claiming special privileges, but not having the change just then, are liberal in promising to send business, and most happy to lend influence, were frequent patients of his, yet his glowing sympathy and generous nature never refused assistance to those in distress, and never with- held professional skill from the poor.
In 1853, August 23, he married Martha Ripley, daughter of Mark and Elizabeth (Bradish) Harris, of Portland. Her father was a native of Ipswich, Mass. Her mother was a daughter of Major Levi Bradish, an early resident of Port- land.
Dr. Robinson rose rapidly to distinction and honor, all the more rich on account of being won through such indomitable perseverance. His ripe scholarship in the profession, aided by sound judgment and quick sympathy for the suffering, brought him the esteem and love of all.
Dr. Robinson, with Dr. Dana, in 1856, founded the Portland Medical School for Preparatory Instruction, and was an in- structor in it up to the time of his death, June 30, 1872. His labors in this school, in the establishment of which he was
the magna pars, were unceasing, and were a source of great enjoyment to himself as well as advantage to the students. So also in the Medical School of Maine, as professor, first of materia medica and therapeutics, and then of obstetrics and diseases of women, he labored with great zeal and re- markable success. He was appointed lecturer on materia medica at Bowdoin College in 1863, and elected to a professor- ship of the same in 1868. In 1870 he was appointed professor of obstetrics and diseases of women in the same institution, which chair he held at the time of his death. He interested himself in all laudable enterprises, and was largely concerned in the establishment of the Portland Dispensary, the Young Men's Christian Association, of which he was the second president, and of the Portland Provident Association.
During the war, in 1862, when an appeal was made for sur- geons to leave their homes and go to Washington for hospital service, he promptly responded, and performed a month's most valuable service in the Armory Square Military Hospital, which was crowded with wounded men from Gen. Pope's army. He aimed to advance the interests of pure medical science, and at the same time to do the work and furnish the ideal of the gentleman and the Christian physician. What- ever or however many might be his appointments, the en- gagements of medical charity were never forgotten by him. He was a very earnest man, conspicnous in early life as well as in mature years. He possessed a strong will, and eminent conscientiousness. His practical good sense could early see the way to a successful career, and he ever kept it before him. All he undertook he finished well. His example and spirit in their impression on others grew the more admirable with enlarged acquaintance with life and the struggles by which men maintain life. In a modest but earnest way he knew his own worth. He never failed to improve an opportunity to impress upon medical students the glorious carcer of the medical man.
Dr. Robinson did not know how to spare himself, and after the great fire of 1866, with all the burdens of practice and college and school on his shoulders, he became a member of the City Council, and was chairman of the building committee of the First Baptist Church. Under this accumulated pres- sure his health gave way, and in the early summer of 1868 he was stricken down with paralysis. Gradually rallying from this, he was able in part to resume his labors of practice and teaching, giving three courses of lectures at Brunswick after- wards. In the last year of his life he suffered intense agony, his left foot being affected with gangrene so as to require amputation. He died, leaving a widow and three children, -Frederick William, Helen Shailer, and George Henry.

utmost the facilities within his reach. The very difficulties he was obliged to overcome in securing an education served to develop his faculties, and establish in him habits of in- dustry, perseverance, and self-reliance. Full of ambition and hope, he opened a school in Norwich, Conn., when quite young, and was very successful and popular in it. In 1845 he commenced the study of medicine with Dr. John Ford, of Norwich, and, receiving the degree of doctor of medi- cine from the University of New York in 1849, came at once to Portland, and opened an office at the corner of Middle and Union Streets.
" Of the graduates of the school the following are now established in practice in the city of Portland, viz. : Drs. Weeks, Thayer, ITunt, Gerrish, Webster, B. B. Foster, Files, Stanley, Brooks, Ring, and Tolford. The following are known to have occupied official positions of importance, viz., Dr. Franklin Staples, President of the Minnesota Medical Association ; Dr. C. H. Burbank, United States Navy ; Dr. Le Baron Munroe, United States Army ; Drs. S. S. Emery and B. T. Sanborn, Assistant Physicians in Insane Asylum at Augusta ; Dr. George L. Goodale, Professor in Bowdoin College and Harvard University ; Dr. Alfred Mitchell, Pro- fessor of Obstetrics and the Diseases of Children in the Medical School of Maine; Dr. Frederic Henry Gerrish, Professor in the Medical School of Maine and the University of Michigan ; Dr. Charles O. Hunt, Permanent Secretary of the Maine Medical Association.
" Four of the past students of the school are now in- structors in it, viz. : Drs. Stephen H. Weeks, C. O. Hunt, F. H. Gerrish, and B. B. Foster.
" From the many who are now reflecting honor upon their Alma Mater from fields of private practice, only a few cau here be mentioned as samples, viz .: Drs. N. W. Leighton, of Brooklyn, N. Y .; Wendell P. Anderson, of La Crosse, Wis. ; Henry F. Walker, of New York ; N. B. Coleman, of Portsmouth, N. II. ; William G. Carter, of Con- cord, N. H. ; A. K. P. Meserve, of Buxton ; R. G. Dennett, of Saco; P. C. Wiley, of Bethel ; J. B. Severy, of Farm- ington ; Ilenry II. Hunt, of Gorham; Geo. W. Hale, of Sedgwick ; Geo. W. Foster, of Bangor; R. D. Bibber, of Bath ; E. B. Weston, of Lewiston ; F. H. Chase, of Orland ; F. W. Chadbourne, of Oldtown.
" As the largest city in Maine, Portland has in the past afforded opportunities for such work as this school contem- plates, not elsewhere found in the State. Its population and wealth have been steadily growing, and, step by step with this growth, its facilities for clinical instruction have increased. The Maine General Hospital, now in success- ful operation, will add immensely to its facilities in this most important direction."
MAINE GENERAL HOSPITAL.
This is an institution which was incorporated by act of Legislature, Feb. 24, 1868. On the 12th of March, 1870, resolutions were passed by the Legislature, granting to the corporation the arsenal grounds on Bramhall Hill in Port- land, two and a half acres in extent, conditional that it should raise $20,000 by private donations and subscriptions. The State also granted $20,000 when the corporation had raised and expended $40,000. More than $10,000 in
excess of the $40,000 was raised by subscription in the city, and the State paid over the $20,000. At the State fair held in Portland, in 1873, a further sum of about $40,000 was raised, and the Legislature, in 1875, granted $10,000 more, and the institution is now in active operation.
The hospital, when completed, will consist of a central building and four pavilions, beside the amphitheatre, boiler- house, and kitchen. The central building and eastern pa- vilion are already erected, and have accommodations for seventy patients.
This institution is worthy of a much more liberal support than it has been receiving. In their annual report for the year ending in October, 1878, the directors say,-
" Forty applicants without pecuniary means, mostly from the work- ing classes, and residing in all parts of the State, were received on the score of humanity,-many of them requiring for their restoration or relief not only skillful surgery, but continued hospital treatment ; and, happily, we are able to say that a large proportion of them re- turned to their families, and in due time to their business pursuits, with greatly improved and in many cases restored health.
" These patients could not have been successfully treated or prop- erly cared for at their homes, and but for the superior professional advantages which a well-regulated hospital can always provide, would have remained there to-day great sufferers, crippled for life; and some of them, we fear, would sooner or later have been reduced to panperisiu, and have become the unwilling and unfortunate subjects of town or city support.
" Could the citizens of our State, from personal observation, wit- ness the great amount of good which the Maine General Hospital bas done, and is constantly doing, in its sphere of professional and philan- thropic duty, their sympathies, we believe, would not only be secured, but practically manifested by generous and wide-spread donations for its support ; and especially, that our legislators would continue the small annual appropriation which at this carly period of its his- tory is almost essential to its life,-certainly to the continuance of its present work of beneficence.
" Its permanent fund derived from gifts and legacies, the interest of which can only be used for hospital purposes, amounts to twelve thousand two hundred and twenty-one dollars and seven cents."
The following are the officers for the current year : John B. Brown, President ; John T. Gilman, Israel Washburn, Jr., Samuel E. Spring, A. W. 11. Clapp, Iloratio N. Jose, William W.
