He was appointed health physician of Buffalo in 1850, and elected president of the county society in 1852. He represented the society at different times as a delegate to both the State and National bodies, becoming a permanent member of each. From 1858 to 1874 he was attending phy- sician at Buffalo General Hospital. He was a successful and highly respected phy- sician.

1843 .- William K. Scott, Silas Hubbard, Horace M. Congar and Charles H. Wilcox. The year 1833 seems to have been prolific in sup- plying good material to the society.
William K. Scott was the first physician licensed to practise medicine by the Med- ical Society of the State of New York. His diploma was dated 1809. He came to the city from Troy, joined the medical society in 1843, and was elected president in 1844. He was a man of great energy, sterling worth, and possessed a diversity of accomplishments. He lived to advanced age, became totally blind, and died Jan- uary 8, 1879.
Silas Hubbard also joined the society in 1843, retaining membership therein until 1855. He was a contributor to the Buffalo Medical Journal, and member of the Buf- falo Medical Association of which he was vice-president in 1851-52. ..
In this year, too, Horace M. Congar became a member. He was sent as delegate to the State Medical Society in 1854, and was elected a permanent member thereof in 1859. He was appointed by the State society a member of a committee from the Eighth Senatorial District on the subject of epidemics. In 1848 he opened a private medical school for the instruction of students. He continued an active member of the society until 1875. He died soon afterward at an advanced age.
Charles H. Wilcox became a member in 1843 and was president in 1850. Dr. Wilcox was a decided acquisition to the society. He was an amiable and able man as well as a skilful physician. He was chosen treasurer in 1856 and again in 1857. Dr. Wilcox was the first medical officer from Buffalo to be commissioned during the war of the Rebellion, and a record of his military service will be found under its ap- propriate head. His death, which occurred November 6, 1862, was a sad blow to the profession and the community. He died lamented on all sides and will be long remembered for his sterling worth, integrity of character, and accomplishments as a physician.

Isaac Parsell, Samuel S. Prudden, Samuel G. Bailey, John Hauenstein, John S. Trowbridge, George N. Burwell and Jesse F. Lock. The con- tribution of this year, too, contains a group of politicians, many of whom attained prominence.
William Treat, who came to Buffalo from Maine, was elected to membership in 1844, and became president in 1860. He was a man of literary attainments and contributed several valuable papers to the Buffalo Medical Journal. In July, 1861, after the battle of Bull Run, he went to Washington and repaired to Fort Runyon, an earthwork on the Virginia side of the Potomac near the end of Long Bridge, where he was assigned to duty in caring for the wounded as they came from the battlefield. Afterward he also assisted at the City Hospital in rendering a similar service. At a meeting of the Buffalo Medical Association, held in August, 1861, he gave an interesting account of his observations. Singularly and sadly, Dr. Treat died before the month ended. He commanded the respect of his colleagues as well as a large clientèle.
James B. Samo, a native of New Jersey, also joined in this year. He was elected librarian in 1852, and became president in 1862. He was local marine hospital surgeon from 1853 to 1859, and enjoyed the respect and confidence of his professional friends during his long period of membership. He was librarian for forty years, namely, from 1852 to 1892. He died March 12, 1897. aged 85 years.
John Hauenstein. still living though retired from active practice, became a member in 1844. and was chosen president in 1881. He has read many excellent papers before the society, the latest, on the " First Uses of Anesthetics in Buffalo," at the seventy-fifth anniversary meeting of the society, January 14, 1896. This paper was published in the March, 1896, edition of the Buffalo Medical Journal. Dr. Hauenstein, having ceased the active practice of a profession that he has so long adorned, still lives in the enjoyment of good health and the respect and con- fidence of a large community.
Samuel G Bailey also united with the society in 1844. He had been a pupil of Dr. James P. White, and was elected treasurer in 1852, holding to and including 1855. He ceased to be a member in 1856.
John S. Trowbridge, son of Josiah Trowbridge, was one of the accessions in 1844. and in 1845 was chosen one of the censors of the society, continuing as such during 1846. In 1848 he was elected secretary, holding the office until 1851. At the annual meeting of the society, January 12, 1869. Dr. Trowbridge read a biographical sketch of his father, Josiah Trowbridge, which was also read a week later before the Buffalo Historical Society, and sent out with the February, 1869, issue of the Buffalo Medi- cal Journal. About the year 1874 Dr. Trowbridge retired from the practice of his profession and established a drug store at the corner of Niagara and Carolina streets. He died April 2, 1886, aged sixty-nine years.
George N. Burwell was another of the accessions in 1844 who acquired fame in the profession, and who for many years was active in the councils of the society. He had an extensive following among rich and poor and may justly be rated as one of Buffalo's most successful physicians. He died May 15, 1891, aged seventy-one years.

Frank Hastings Hamilton, who joined the society in 1845, came to Buffalo from Geneva where he had been teaching anat- omy and surgery for several years. In 1846 he was elected professor of surgery in Buffalo Medical College which chair he held until 1860. He was censor of the society from 1851 to 1856 inclusive; was elected vice-president in 1856, and presi- dent in 1857. In 1851 he became a perma- nent member of the State society, and was elected president of the same in 1856. During the fifteen years of his residence at Buffalo Dr. Hamilton was a regular contributor to the Buffalo Medical Journal, in which he published his early fracture tables and papers relating to deformities after fractures, that laid the foundation for his future classic treatise on fractures and dislocations. In 1860 Dr. Hamilton re- moved to New York becoming professor of surgery at the Long Island College Hos- pital, and was chosen to the same chair at Bellevue Hospital Medical College upon its organization in 1861. Dr. Hamilton died August 11, 1886, at the age of seventy- FRANK HASTINGS HAMILTON, M. D. three. Perhaps no man of his time con- tributed more to maintain the esprit de corps of the profession of medicine than did this educated, accomplished and upright surgeon.
It was during 1845 that the Buffalo Medical Journal was established, and we find in the records of the society a subscription order for six copies by which act the so- ciety manifested its loyal support of the Journal.

C., soon after its organization, which chair he held for three years. He died at Buffalo, February 10, 1890, aged seventy- two years.
