Abstract:
In his article Lawrence presents information on the beginning of the organization, some of the distinguished men who have served as its officers, and an appreciation of the work which they have accomplished. The doctors represent the oldest organized profession in the state. There is some dispute as to whether it organized in 1799 or 1800, but it is well documented that Richard Fenner was the first president.
