Excerpt from Memoirs of Pliny Earle, M. D: With Extracts From His Diary and Letters, 1830 1892, and Selections From His Professional Writings, 1839 1891
IN writing the life of an American alienist who began his observations on his insane countrymen nearly sixty-five years ago, and traversed Europe, inspecting asylums, in 1837-8 - 9, one is reminded of the saying of that aged Roman who was brought to trial before the third generation of his countrymen.
