Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Influence of Medicine: An Oration Delivered Before the Philadelphia Medical Society, Pursuant to Appointment
Dear Sir - In requesting your acceptance of this Discourse, I must be allowed to add, that my earliest partialities for the Society before which it was delivered, grew out of the ani mated but ever courteous discussions in which you and the lamented Dorsey took such a leading share. The friend in earlier life of the tasteful and enthusiastic Dennie, and Editor of the choicest examples of the_eloquence of the British Se nate, you present in later years other claims on public regard in the ornate diction and rich style in which you clothe the elaborate digests of medicine so ably and successfully present ed in your Lectures and published works.
