Synopsis

In this historical pamphlet excerpt, Peaslee and colleagues defend the Woman’s Hospital’s Medical Board against Dr. Sims’ accusations. They recount the events around his resignation, the board’s rules, and the notes and letters that followed.

This account frames a 19th‑century debate over professional conduct, board governance, and how hospitals publish and defend their records. It presents the authors’ perspective on misused statistics, accountability, and the limits of authority in medical institutions. Readers will see how clinical performance, administrative decisions, and personal reputations intersect in a tense professional dispute.

- Learn how hospital governance and physician conduct were debated in the late 1800s.
- See how the authors defend their record-keeping and challenge contested statistics.
- Understand how arguments about rules, resignations, and prestige shaped university hospital politics.
- Explore the tone and rhetoric used in public disputes within the medical profession of that era.

Ideal for readers of medical history, hospital administration, and 19th‑century professional culture, this edition offers insight into the era’s ethical and organizational questions.
