HISTORICAL NOTE.

In July, 1843, the New York Homœopathic Physicians' Society issued invitations to the Homœopathic physicians of the United States, to meet in general convention in the city of New York for the purpose of forming a National Homoeopathic Medical Society. The invitation was responded to by a considerable number of the leading Homœopathic practitioners of the country, who, according to previous arrangement, convened in the Lyceum of Natural History in New York City, on the 10th day of April, 1844, the eighty-ninth anniversary of the birth of the illustrious Hahnemann.

The convention was organized by electing Constantine Hering, M.D., of Philadelphia, Pa., President; Josiah F. Flagg, M.D., of Boston, Mass., and William Channing, M.D., of New York City, N. Y., Vice-Presidents; and Henry Dunnell, M.D., Secretary. The following resolution was unanimously adopted:

Resolved, That it is deemed expedient to establish a society, entitled "The American Institute of Homœopathy."

John F. Gray, M.D., was elected General Secretary of the Institute, and S. R. Kirby, M.D., Treasurer.

The Convention having accomplished the object for which it had assembled, on motion, adjourned, sine die.

Immediately after the adjournment of the Convention, on the evening of the 10th day of April, 1844, at the call of John F. Gray, M.D., General Secretary-elect, the First Session of the American Institute of Homœopathy was held. Josiah F. Flagg, M.D., Boston, Mass., was elected Chairman, and A. Gerald Hull, M.D., New York City, N. Y., Provisional Secretary.
