for the erection of two additional lunatic asylums, one to be located at Hamilton. Drs. Scobey, Huber and Rigdon were ap- pointed a committee to report on the influ- ence of the dams of the Miami river on the health of Hamilton and Rossville.

In July. 1853, the society adopted a constitution, and ordered it to be printed. The name of the Butler County Medical So- ciety was adopted.

In July. 1867, the society accepted an invitation to meet with the Union Medical Society at Oxford in October. This asso- ciation consisted of the societies of Preble county. Ohio, and Fayette and Union counties, Indiana. This meeting was held and proved to be of such interest and ad- vantage that district meetings of the charac- ter have been continued ever since.

In 1868 the Butler County Society with- drew from the Ohio Medical Society on ac- count "of gross incivility shown" and "in defiance of its own rules and all courtesy." Later the state society made proper amends and the former amicable relations were re- stored.
