Synopsis

Excerpt from Eulogy on the Life and Character of Theodric Romeyn Beck, M.D., LL. D: Delivered Before the Medical Society of the State of New-York

Let us pause, while we rew his labors, and contemplate our loss - for, in such a life as has here terminated, there must be something instructive, and we ought carefully to estimate its value. Upon the speaker, who was once his pupil, subsequently his colleague, and now, by your partial suffrages, his successor, has seemed to devolve the duty to trace his history - to epilogue the long chapter of his life, and to draw the moral; in order that these things may hereafter find a faithful record upon the annals of our society. With an earnest desire that I may do no injustice to a theme so sacred, both to the living and to the dead, yet with doubting and unequal steps I undertake the task.
