Item description from seller

30pp, stitched, untrimmed. Very Good+. This pamphlet explains the controversy between South Carolina's Medical Society and its Medical College. The Medical Society created the Medical College in the 1820s. Dickson, a physician, helped to found the College; Simons, a leader of the Medical Society, would exercise control over the College. The College faculty, including Dickson, was unhappy with Society rule and resigned in 1832. The parting was unpleasant; competing pamphlets issued on the contentious issues, this one accusing Dickson of "sarcastic taunts and angry vituperations." The departed faculty would open another medical school. Unable to compete, the Medical Society would relinquish its control in 1839 and the two medical schools merged. II Turnbull 331. Not in American Imprints or Sabin. OCLC 191248286 [1- AAS] as of October 2025.
