Présentation de l'éditeur
Pittsburgh Academy of Medicine, before whom this essay was read in abstract on November 27, 1907, passed a resolution at that time requesting me to publish it. And this I set about to do; but dela)rs in the matter were many and prolonged with the result that more than four years have elapsed between the preparation of this essay and its publication. Probably very few, physicians have an adequate idea of the extent of Franklin swritings relating to their profession and of the soundness and the very substantial character of some of his contributions. Franklin must ever be accounted as one of the greatest benefactors, friends and patrons of the medical profession as well as a most substantial contributor to the science and. art qfmedicine. Had this great man labored only in the field of medicine and done nothing else than is herein set forth, these things would entitle him to the lasting gratitude of his fellow men. T. D. Pittsburgh, Pa,, January,
