Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History of the New Hampshire Surgeons in the War of Rebellion As the compiler of the sketches which are comprised in this work, I have been under great obligations to comrades that are living and to the friends of those deceased. They were self-sacrificing patriots. I have made a great effort that people of New Hampshire should have something in memoriam of the professional attainments of those who so gallantly responded when their services were needed to care for the sick and wounded. While president of the New Hampshire Medical Society, one of the noble men from New Hampshire said during that gloomy period of the war in 1863: "Our country is under a cloud, dark and portentous. A great and powerful portion of this nation is in wicked rebellion against the flag raised by our fathers after years of suffering and the spending of millions of treasure. No hour so gloomy has it ever been the misfortune of this people to endure. Is the sun of our glory about to go down forever and leave the worshippers of Liberty no gleam of light? Can it be that the future historian shall write our rise, progress and downfall as not occupying the space of ninety years? And have we as medical men nothing to do in this great struggle for national existence, but to stand by in silence, or at most to look after the sick and wounded? Gentlemen, the founders of this society were patriots as well as physicians. They helped achieve our independence. They witnessed the dreadful agonies of the colonies and welcomed the birth of a nation. The first president of our society, who was also one of its founders, was the first person who voted for the Declaration of Independence and the second man who signed it. The blood of the heroes of the Revolution has never ceased to circulate in this organization. It is in this society to-day.
