Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Microbes and Men, to-Morrow´s Topics Series Dedicated to the memory of my dear old chum, Francis E. Dwight. We first met on the hard board seats of the College of Physicians and Surgeons at the corner of Twenty-third Street and Fourth Avenue one autumn day in the year of 1881. I had volunteered some information to a stranger on the left in my usual cock-sure way, and he promptly transfixed the idea with a point of wit so deftly that the advantage of securing him for a companion was obvious. He adopted the suggestion largely upon a ground of sharing economies in room rent no doubt, and joined me at number Sixteen East Thirty-second Street. Here was the board of gracious and dignified Mrs. Townsend, whose previous experience as matron at Sing Sing Prison had qualified her particularly well for managing a boarding house in New York. Frank and I had few traits in common. He was a refined scholar with a handsome intellectual face, while I was an athletic blunderbuss, but we both found youthful joy in discussing complicated hypotheses, and both had arrived at a point in self-culture where nothing could make either one of us angry.
