College of Physicians of Philadelphia. Office of the Secretary.
The office of the Secretary of the College of Physicians of Philadelphia was created during the organization of the College in 1787. His original duties included recording the minutes and transactions of the College and preservations of its documents and correspondence. In 1834, the Secretary was empowered to keep lists of the fellows and provide them with certificates of membership.
In 1863, the responsibility for notifying officers and committee members of election or appointment devolved on the Secretary; an annual report on the fellowship became part of the Secretary's duties in 1870. In 1990, the Secretary was empowered to perform "all the duties appropriate to his or her post as the elected recording officer of the College and assume the duties and powers of the President in the absence or temporary incapacity of both the President and President-Elect."
