road, as a part of the Rochester division of that road.
Energetic measures were set on foot by the resi- dents of this county to extend this road from Avon to Portage, and July 12, 1856, the Genesee Valley Railroad Company was formed for the accomplish- ment of that object. It was composed among others, of James S. Wadsworth of Geneseo; John R. Murray, Judge Geo. S. Hastings, Hiram P. Mills, and Reuben P. Wisner of Mt. Morris ; Judge Charles H. Carroll and Dr. Daniel H. Fitzhugh of Groveland ; and William Kidd, Waterman F. Rey- nolds and Henry E. Rochester of Rochester, all of whom were prominent members of the company. Arrangements were made whereby the Rochester and Genesee Valley Railroad Company agreed to transfer to this company all its right and title to real property on the line soutli of Avon, on condition that it carry forward the project. 'This transfer was made by deed, Dec. 26, 1856. In September, 1856, a contract was entered into with George W. Phelps of Mt. Morris, to complete the road from Avon to Mt. Morris. He commenced operations in October of that year ; but owing to the financial crisis of 1857, and the consequent inability of the company to furnish the means for prosecuting the work, it was not completed until 1859. The first train passed over the road on Thursday, January 20, 1859, when Mr. Phelps took the directors to Avon and gave them a dinner there. The road was formally opened, June 5, 1859. Its length from Avon to Mt. Morris is 17.561 miles; and to the town line 19 miles.
In 1856, the Genesce Valley Railroad Company issued bonds to the amount of $175,000 for con- struction expenses, and July 22, 1857, executed a mortgage on its property to secure them. The road was sold on foreclosure in 1858, and was sub- sequently purchased by the Avon, Geneseo and Mit. Morris Railroad Company, which was chartered March 8, 1860, with a capital of $225,000.
On the completion of the road it was managed by Mr. Patchen, who ran his trains over it to Roch- ester, for a pro rata of the expenses, and in eight months made the running expenses exceed the re- ceipts by about $1,800. May 1, 1860, the road was leased to George W. Phelps, then a large stockhold- er, for one year, he agreeing to pay seven per cent. on the cost of construction. Mr. Phelps renewed the lease a second year, at the expiration of which he became its manager, and continued it success- fully till 1872, when it was leased to the Eric Rail- way Company for eighty years with all renewals and

charters. It is now leased and operated by the New York, Lake Erie and Western Railroad Com- pany, as a part of the Rochester division of that road.
The Dansville and Genesee Valley Railroad Company was organized March 22, 1864, for the purpose of constructing and operating a road fifteen miles in length from Dansville to Mt. Morris, to intersect at or near the latter place the Avon, Gen- eseo and Mt. Morris Railroad, but without accom- plishing its object. The capital stock was fixed at $150,000, divided into 6,000 shares. The follow- ing named directors were chosen : George Hy- land, James Faulkner, Charles Shepard, James C. Jackson, Jesse Angel, Hugh McCartney, Sidney Sweet, Alonzo Bradner, Orville Tousey, all of Dansville ; Hugh T. McNair, of West Sparta ; Anson D. Smith, of Mt. Morris, and Isaac Butts and William Kidd, of Rochester.
January 24, 1868, a charter was granted to the Erie and Genesee Valley Railroad Company for the purpose of extending the Avon, Geneseo and Mt. Morris Railroad from Groveland to Burns, in Allegany county, to connect at the latter place with the Buffalo and Hornellsville branch of the Erie road. In 1871, seven miles of this road was constructed, and in 1872, an additional five and one-fourth miles, completing it to Dansville,* be- yond which point it has not since been carried. On its completion to Dansville the company leased the road to the Erie Railway Company, agreeing in the lease to build it through to Burns. The road is now operated by the New York, Lake Erie and Western Railroad.
The Silver Lake Railroad was chartered July 19, 1869, for the purpose of constructing a railroad from Perry to Caledonia, with a capital of half a million dollars, $ 120, 127 of which is paid in. Six and one-half miles of the road, from Perry to East Gainesville, have been constructed, connecting the former village with the Erie Railroad.
The Canandaigua and Niagara Falls Railroad Company was incorporated May 18, 1851, under the general railroad Act of 1850, and in 1853 con- structed a railroad from Canandaigua to Suspen- sion Bridge, mortgaging its property, corporate franchises, etc., to secure the issue of certain bonds.
This mortgage was subsequently foreclosed, and the mortgaged property purchased by James M. Brown, Charles Congdon and Robert B. Potter, who, with others, organized the Niagara Bridge and Canandaigua Railroad Company, August 25,
1858, and to whom they subsequently transferred the property. The company then leased the line to the New York Central Railroad Company for the term of its charter. The road is now leased and operated by the New York Central and Hud- son River Railroad Company. It extends from east to west through the north part of the town of Caledonia.
The Rochester, Nunda and Pennsylvania Rail- road Company was organized April 9, 1870, for the purpose of building a road from Mt. Morris to Belvidere, the object being to establish a railroad connection between Rochester and the trunk line of the Erie road. The project enlarged and on the roth of January, 1872, a company styled the Northern Extension of the Rochester, Nunda and Pennsylvania Railroad was formed to build a road from Mt. Morris to Rochester on the west side of the Genesee Valley, passing through the towns of Leicester, York, Caledonia, Wheatland and Gates. The same year another company known as the Southern Extension of the Rochester, Nunda and Pennsylvania Railroad was formed in the same interest to build a road from Belvidere to the Pennsylvania line ; and immediately thereafter the three companies consolidated into one, taking the name of the first. Immediately thereafter the con- solidated company consolidated with another rail- road company in Pennsylvania, known as the Northern Railroad and Navigation Company, under the name of the Rochester, Nunda and Pennsylvania Railroad Company, having for its objects the opening of a direct communication with the cities of Rochester and Pittsburg, and the cities lying to the south-west of the latter, and to open to people on its line and to northern markets the vast forests of timber and especially the im- mense bituminous coal basin of Pennsylvania, which the road penetrates for a distance of fifty miles. The company adopted mainly a route sur- veyed for a railroad more than twenty-five years previously. With about seventy-five miles graded and about eighteen miles of iron laid and ballasted (from Mt. Morris south through Nunda and Rosse's Crossing,) the panic of 1873 overtook and swamped the enterprise. In June, 1877, the fran- chises and property of the company were sold on foreclosure of mortgage and bought in the interest of the stockholders, who re-organized, June 27, 1877, as the Rochester, Nunda and Pittsburg Railroad Company, of which George Jerome, J. Simpson, of Detroit, Charles I .. Bingham, of Mt. Morris, C. W. Leavitt, of Philadelphia, T. Gilbert

Smith, George M. Osgoodby, Buffalo, Franklin D. Lake, Nunda, J. C, Wicker, Leicester, are the directors ; George Jerome, president ; Franklin D. Lake, vice-president; C. W. Leavitt, secretary ; Charles L. Bingham, treasurer. The property was kept intact and was sold in September, 1880, to capitalists, who propose to build the road. The road has never be operated.
The Rochester and Genesee Valley Canal Rail- road Company was incorporated April 15, 1879, for the purpose of building a railroad as nearly as prac- ticable on the line of the Genesee Valley Canal, (abandoned,) from Mt. Morris, and through that town, Nunda and Portage, in Livingston county: Genesee Falls, in Wyoming county, Hume, Cane- adea, Belfast and New Hudson to Cuba, in Alle- gany county, its southern terminus. No portion of the road is yet under construction. The directors and officers are : George W. Phelps, (president,) and Norman Seymour, Mt. Morris ; Mortimer F. Reynolds, Lewis P. Ross, (secretary,) R.

"THE formation of county medical societies was authorized in 1806, by an Act of the Legislature which conferred on them certain powers and im-
posed certain duties. Previously all persons de- siring to practice "physic and surgery," were re- quired to present evidence of their competency to the Chancellor of the State, to a Judge of the Su- preme or Common Pleas Court, or to a Master in Chancery, and on receiving a certificate entitling them to practice, to file it in the county clerk's of- fice, under penalty of receiving no remuneration, or in case pay was received, of being fined twenty- five dollars each time it was so received. The law authorizing county medical societies conferred on them authority to grant licenses and recognize diplomas from other States and countries, but such licenses and diplomas were required to be filed in the county clerk's office under like penalties.
The Medical Society of the County of Livingston was organized at a meeting of physicians and sur- geons at the house of Col. John Pierce in Genesee, on Tuesday, the 29th of May, 1821. The meet- ing was attended by the following physicians : Charles Little and Jared D. Ensworth, Avon; Jus- tin Smith, Lima ; Samnel Daniels, Elkanah French and Eli Hill, Livonia ; Royal Tyler and John W. Leonard, York; and Cyrus Wells, Jr., Geneseo. Dr. Charles Little was chosen chairman, and Dr. Justin Smith, secretary of the meeting. The fol- lowing officers were chosen for the ensuing year : Charles Little, president ; Justin Smith, vice-presi- dent ; Cyrus Wells, Jr., secretary ; Samuel Daniels, treasurer.
At this early period the facilities for acquiring a medical education was much more limited than at present, and a large proportion of the practitioners of medicine were licensed to practice by State and county societies. The proportion of those who were licensed to those who were graduates of medi- cal colleges was about two to one. Upto 1852, the copies of diplomas filed in the County Clerk's office show that seventy-three were licentiates and forty- four graduates .*
The society, feeling their responsibility, provided by their first code of by-laws for a triumvirate, con- sisting of the president, secretary and one of the censors, "to examine students in the preparatory branches of education and give a certificate pre- vious to their entrance upon study." Candidates for license to practice "physic and surgery" were required to give notice thereof to the president and

censors fifteen days previous to examination, and to produce to the censors satisfactory proof that they were twenty-one years of age and of good moral character; that they had studied the term required by law with one or more "reputable and legal practitioners," and had " appropriated that time solely to the study of physic and surgery." They were required to undergo an examination in Materia Medica and pharmacy, anatomy, physi- ology and the "theory and practice of physic." Candidates for license to practice surgery were required to undergo an examination, particularly in anatomy and surgery. If the examination proved satisfactory a diploma was issued.
These by-laws further specify that "it is consid- ered the duty of every member of this society to support the honor and dignity of the medical pro- fession and execute their respective duties with justice and fidelity." Each new member was required at the next meeting after his admission to deliver in the presence of the society a dissertation on some subject connected with medical science. The records of a later period show that new members were permitted to deliver a dissertation in lieu of the regular initiation fee, which, at different times, was two, three and five dollars. These disserta- tions were also required from members joining from other counties, who, however, were allowed to join without fee. An officer who absented himself from any stated meeting, unless he gave a reasonable excuse at the next meeting, was liable to a fine of not less than two dollars, and other members, to a fine not exceeding one dollar. All members over sixty years of age were exempted from fines for non-attendance. The president, at the expiration of his office, was required to deliver a dissertation on some medical subject or an address, and in case of failure to pay a fine of $25. The by-laws adopted in 1829, required the delegate to the State Society to deliver an address before the society at the ex- piration of his office or forfeit the sum of $20. These by-laws have since been several times modi- fied to meet the exigencies of the times. June 28, 1830, the Society put itself on record on the temperance question by the adoption of the follow- ing resolutions presented by Dr. G. W. Little :-
" Resolved, That we view intemperance in any degree in the use of distilled spirits a great moral and physical evil; and that we consider it our duty, both as physicians and as citizens, to exer- cise all the influence of which we may be possessed to aid in its suppression.
" Resolved, That the exertions making very gen- erally throughout this country, for the promotion
of this object, while they are confined to their legitimate and avowed purposes, and preserved en- tirely disconnected with any extraneous question, meet our cordial approbation ; and that all the aid which we can contribute to promote their success shall be cordially and constantly afforded.
" Resolved, That the popular opinion that a common use of ardent spirits renders the human system less subject to the diseases of this climate, we consider to be a dangerous, and in many in- stances, a fatal error.
"Resolved, That our medical experience conclu- sively shows us that persons intemperate in the use of ardent spirits, are more liable to be attacked by the diseases incident to this climate ; and that their diseases are uniformly of a more dangerous and intractable character.
"Resolved, That we will on all proper occasions enforce the above sentiments by our advice to those under our professional care ; and at all times by the influence of our personal example."
Up to this period regular annual and semi- annual meetings were held, with possibly one or two exceptions, when they were omitted for want of a quorum till 1834. From that year until 1841, no semi-annual meetings are recorded. In the latter year they were resumed.
This was a period when the physicians in this county in common with others throughout the country were deeply agitated-the period when homeopathy began to force its just claims on pub- lic attention and to legal recognition. The legis- lative action which soon followed-in 1844-was regarded by many with grave and honest appre- hension ; for it was thought that it would prove detrimental to the interests of the profession, and many believed, says Dr. Lauderdale, "that their efforts to advance a sound rational system of medi- cal education and practice were neither apprecia- ted by the people, nor their representatives in the legislature." It has, however, worked beneficially in resting the prestige of the profession upon its real, rather than its assumed merits.
This Society, in a measure, anticipated and in- vited legislative action on this subject. January 30, 1844, Drs. Salisbury, Metcalf and Lauderdale were appointed to draft resolutions, which, after having been signed by the presiding officers of this meeting, should be forwarded to the Chairman of the Committee on Medical Colleges of the Legis- lature of this State, "urging the abolition of all laws in relation to the practice of physic and sur- gery." At the annual meeting of June 25, 1844, " after some discussion on the utility of continuing this Society under the disadvantages" which then existed, it was

"Resolved, That when this meeting adjourn they adjourn sine die ; and that a committee consisting of three be appointed by the Chair to draft a state- ment and resolutions expressive of the views of this Society; and that the editors of the several newspapers of the county be requested to publish them ; that a copy be forwarded to the State Med- ical Society."
Drs. Salisbury, D. H. Bissell and Sill were ap- pointed such committee. At this meeting it was further
" Resolved, That the funds belonging to the So- ciety, amounting to $12.25, be expended by the Sec- retary for medical books, which shall be deposited in the medical library room established by the late James Wadsworth in the village of Geneseo."
This is the first reference made in the records of the Society to medical literature.
The annual meetings up to 1844 were held with great regularity at Geneseo, where, also, the semi- annual meetings were generally held.
During the eight years succeeding 1844, the society was practically dormant, its meetings being discontinued. In 1852, "it was concluded," says Dr. Lauderdale, " by a number of the physicians of the county, upon consultation, that the interests of the profession and the community at large, requires a reorganization of the Society ; and an invitation was extended through the papers to the physicians of the county, to meet in Geneseo, on the 28th day of September, for the purpose of re- organization."
In accordance with this call the following named physicians convened at the American Hotel, Gen- eseo, viz. : 1). H. Bissell, T. Morse, J. B. Pur- chase, A. L. Gilbert, S. L .. Endress, W. E. Lauder- dale, William C. Dwight, W. H. Sellew, E. W. Patchen, B. L. Hovey, Z. H. Blake, A. W. Mercer, A. H. Hoff, 1 .. J. Ames, B. F. Fowler. Dr. A. H. Hoff was chosen chairman, and B. F. Fowler, sec- retary. Committees were appointed to draft by- laws and medical ethics, officers were elected for the ensuing year, and a committee appointed to select suitable persons to prepare addresses on medical subjects to be read at subsequent meetings.
The meetings of the Society continued to be held regularly until 1858. There is no record of a meeting from January 7, 1858, to Jannary 7, 1864. At the latter meeting a new fee bill to correspond with the times was adopted. Two fee bills had been previously adopted, one in May, 1857, and the other June 28, 1842. This meeting was attended by Drs. Bissell, who was called to the chair, Nesbitt, Wells, Ames, G. H. Bennett, William Sprague, Ellis, Vickery, and J. A. Bennett.
The next meeting recorded was held July 24, 1867, and was attended by Drs. Blake, Patchen, l'erine, Purchase, Bennett, Ellis, Lauderdale and Chase. Dr. Lauderdale, as senior member, was called to the chair, and Dr. Chase appointed sec- retary. Drs. Perine, Purchase, Bennett and Blake, were appointed a committee to draft resolutions, and after a recess of fifteen minutes reported as follows :-
WHEREAS, The Livingston County Medical Society has failed to meet for a term of years ; therefore,
Resolved, That we request the secretary to call the members together for an annual meeting on the 18th of September, 1867."
A new fee bill was adopted in January, 1868, and another in June, 1873.
In 1874, the Legislature in a measure put up the barriers taken down in 1844, so far as to dis- criminate against quackery, but not against regular schools of medicine. Practitioners are required by the law of 1874 to have a license from a medical society or to be a graduate from a medical college. May 29, 1880, an Act was passed by the Legisla- ture requiring medical practitioners to register in the County Clerk's office, on or before October 1, 1880, their name, residence, place of birth and authority for practicing. Both these laws make illegal practice punishable by fine or imprisonment or both.
