was continued as surgeon of the ship dur- ing the three years' cruise to South Am- erica and West Indies; after his return from that cruise, for a time attended officers of the Navy in New York and Brooklyn. He was next, in 1877, assigned to the U. S. training ship Minnesota, and remained in that service for about three years; after some special duty in the City of New York, next duty was on the U. S. S. Omaha, flagship of the Asiatic Station, where he had to deal with an- other epidemic of cholera which prevailed severely over China and Japan; was fleet surgeon of the Asiatic Station for about one year, and on returning to the United States became surgeon of the New York marine rendezvous and New York Navy Yard, filling position three years; after that was assigned to service on the cruiser New York, and entered upon the discharge of duty upon the ship Aug. 1, 1893. He has been professor of hygiene and emeritus professor in the New York Post-Graduate Medical School and Hos- pital during the past twenty years, and still holds that position. The cruiser New York was ordered to Rio Janeiro as one of the vessels sent by this government to that port at the time of the Brazilian rebellion, commander being Captain John W. Philip. There was an epidemic of yellow fever at Rio, the disease prevail- ing among all the foreign men of war in the port; but the New York was kept en- tirely free from the fever by great care and by scientific sanitary precautions un- der the charge of Dr. Kershner. Thence the squadron was ordered to New York, and after fitting out again was ordered upon a cruise in the West Indies, Rear- Admiral Meade in command of the squad- ron; before the squadron left New York Dr. Kershner was appointed fleet sur- geon. The flagship New York left New York about Jan. 10, 1895, for a cruise among the Windward Islands, where yel- low fever prevailed. While at that port he objected, on sanitary grounds, to the use of the water, for fear of introducing the yellow fever on the ships. This trouble culminated in a report of Meade against Dr. Kershner which resulted in his dis- missal; but this action was reversed by act of Congress, restoring him to his of- fice as medical inspector in the navy. In 1896 he passed the civil service examina- tion in New York City for general in- spector of hospitals, Charity Department, and was placed No. 2 on the eligible list; also civil service examination for medical chief of staff, and received the appoint- ment as such at Infants' Hospital, Ran- dall's Island, N. Y., where he had full charge, as superintendent, of 1,200 pa- tients, and where his services were fully satisfactory to the city officials; was afterwards transferred to the Almshouse Hospital, Blackwells Island, as medical chief of staff, 600 patients.
