Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Early History of the North Carolina Medical Society As the work progressed such a large amount of material accumulated that it became quite plain it could not all be judiciously handled in one lecture without overtaxing the patience of even the most patient audience. Therefore, we will study tonight only the Early History of the North Carolina Medical Society. For convenience we will divide the subject into two periods. The first embraces the years 1799-1804. Perhaps few in this audience know that there was a North Carolina Medical Society antedating the present organization by fifty years. Indeed, Dr. Thomas F. Wood says there is a rare book in the library of the late Governor Clark, by Joseph Pignatius, which contains a reference to a still earlier Society. [Slide] North Carolina Medical Society Organized. The following are quotations from the Raleigh Register: November 12, 1799: It is contemplated by several Gentlemen of the Faculty, in the State, to form themselves into a Medical Society, and that they intend to convene for that purpose in this city some time in the month of December. December 10, 1799: Dr. Calvin Jones, "Secretary of Correspondence," published a notice that the Medical Society would hold its meeting in Raleigh December 16, 1799. December 17, 1799: The Medical Society met this day when Dr. (Jason) Hand was appointed to the Chair, and the Society proceeded to business. [Slide] An Act To Incorporate The North Carolina Medical Society. Laws of North Carolina, 1799. Chapter XXXVIII. I. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of North Carolina, and it is hereby enacted by the authority of the same: That the physicians who have associated themselves together, forming a medical society, be incorporated by the name and title of the North Carolina Medical Society; by which name the society shall have perpetual succession and a common seal and be entitled to sue and be sued, and possess all the other rights and privileges usually vested incorporated bodies, and have a right to hold and possess in their own right, any estate, real or personal, the said society may acquire.
