College of Physicians of Philadelphia. Office of the Secretary. Records, 1854-1909.

Title: Records, 1854-1909.

This collection of records, spanning 1854 to 1909, consists of backup files maintained by the secretaries of the College of Physicians of Philadelphia to provide additional documentation of College meetings. The collection includes rough drafts of minutes, attendance sheets, ballot forms, election tallies, and correspondence. Also present are recommendations of physicians for fellowship, amendments of by-laws, lists of books donated to the Library, and resolutions; much of this material is written on small slips of paper which presumably were handed to the secretary during meetings. In many cases, these records provide a more accurate and candid description of the tone and proceedings of College meetings than do the official College minutes, which were frequently reduced and edited. The minutes of special meetings provide great insight into some of the more pressing matters facing the College over the years. Occasionally these meetings were called in response to medical emergencies, such as the cholera epidemics in Pennsylvania (1854) and in Panama (1903). Special meetings were held frequently during 1903 and 1904, when the Building Committee was debating whether the College should remain on 13th and Locust Street or build at another location. S. Weir Mitchell is well represented in the collection; included among the records are holograph copies of important resolutions submitted by Mitchell during College meetings (1882-1903), correspondence, and a holograph memoir of Thomas D. Mütter (4 May 1859). Of special interest is a report prepared by Mitchell for a meeting held on 30 Mar. 1904 to discuss whether or not the College should move to the 22nd Street location. The typescript report, which contains numerous corrections and additions, describes the area surrounding the lot in great detail and urges the Fellows to consider building there. Other correspondents represented in the collection include George Bacon Wood, John L. Cadwalader, Joseph Leidy, Samuel Lewis, J. M. Da Costa, S. W. Gross, and William W. Keen.
