MINUTES. Durham, N. C., May 21st, 1901. The forty-eighth annual meeting was called to order at 11 a. m. by A. G. Carr of Durham, chairman of the committee of arrangements. Rev. W. L. Cunninggim opened the session with prayer. Prof. Jerome Dowd, of Trinity College, delivered the address of welcome as follows: Gentlemen of the North Carolina Medical Society : Since Durham has grown from a small village to a large city many strangers knock at her gates to partake of her hospitality. Some of them come in pairs, some in troups, some in large bodies like Methodist preachers and doctors. Within the last year we have been honored by a visit from the Knights of Pythias, the Elks, the Junior Order of Mechanics, the Undertakers, and by the way, I have been told that the undertakers cover up many of your mistakes. We have had John Robinsons show, the Harvard baseball club and a dog show. In addition to these several expert opticians and patent medicine men have dropped in upon us and I have observed that some of these play beautifully upon the banjo. Then Dr. Lee the hypnotist and Madam Ami the celebrated fortune teller. Some of these strangers do us and some of them are done by us. In the present case gentlemen we know that you will do us—only good, and consequently we will open the gates of the city wider than common and offer you the freedom of the city. To be sure we shall treat you well. We dare not do otherwise. We are always very careful what we do or say to physicians. We feel somewhat toward them like the deacon did toward the devil. A. young preacher come to town and preached on the devil. He denounced old Nick in the loudest language for about an hour and a half as the author and finisher of all mischief in the world. The old deacon came up to him after the sermon and said to him, are you not afraid to talk about the devil in that way ? I tell you we can't be
