writer says of him in print, His beneficent career is so interwoven with each thread of his existence, that it will be impossible to do him justice until the dead rise and give their account. Dr. David Osgood (H. C. 1813), born in Medford, selected Boston as his home; and, first as an allopathic, and then (after a visit to Dr. Hahnemann in Europe) as a homoeopathic practitioner, has held a high rank. He is a member of the Massachusetts Medical Society. Dr. Samuel Gregg, born in New Boston, N. H., came to Medford and commenced practice in 1826, and for fourteen years pursued the allopathic system of cure. By a visit to Dr. Vandenburg, in New York, he became acquainted with the homoeopathic system, and has since used none other. For the last few years he has been a most successful practitioner in Boston, where he has resided. Dr. Milton Fuller, who has practised acceptably in Medford and the neighboring towns for the last twelve years, on the homoeopathic system, has just r

&c. The Old Colony was ready to take the lead; and we began with petitions and memorials to the Legislature, all recommending the establishment of Normal Schools. How many hundred pages I wrote on this subject, during 1834-6, I dare not say. It was the subject of my thoughts and prayers. The wisdom of the Prussian scheme recommended itself to the reflecting; and, as I had studied it, I was invited to lecture in each of the New England States. I went to Portsmouth, Concord, Nashua, and Keene, N. H.; to Providence and Newport, R. I.; to Hartford, Conn.; to New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania. I went through our own State, holding conventions at the large central towns. All this time I seemed to have little real success. I began to despair. I returned, after two years of excessive toil, to my professional duties, concluding that the time had not yet come for this great movement. One evening, in January, 1837, I was sitting reading to my family, when a letter was brought me from th
