A GREAT SON OF THIS STATE
Desci
The Anderson Medical Socie- ma
ty last week appropriated $50 Ho
to he snent unon the monument Ed
to Dr. J. Marion Sims to be some
reared in Columbia. We have wish
heard the question asked "Who peopl
is Dr. Marion Sims?" Succinct- fore
ly, it may be stated that his is after
the greatest name in this coun- of th
try as a surgeon who has forev
brought relief to suffering wo- wond
man. gest
V . This is the centennial year of ever
, the birth of this man who at- any <
w. tained world renown. He is a ican.
native of Lancaster, the county W<
which gave birth to Andrew after
Jackson, and was born the year and ;
of Jackson's great triumph over 162 ]
Packenham in the battle of New day <
Orleans. the c
Dr. Sims was more or less of Jai
a failure as a young physician aboul
in Lancaster county and this Soutl
should ofTer encouragement to coior
young physicians of today, slow
Later he went to Montgomery, a fin
Ala., where he startled the The
world with the daring of his mour
surgery and the success of his as 8,<
operations. He first attracted wind
attention with his operations are b
for strabismus, or squinting of bridg
the eyes. He was also success- ceme
ful in substituting silver for side
silk sutures in cases of verico- went
vaginal fistula. His results miles
were received with incredulity catth
by the profession. of th
At the age of 40 he removed and :
to New York and urged the manj
building of a hospital for treat- one f
ing woman's diseases. A jour- catth
ney to Europe brought him their
recognition denied him in this home
country and he established a Th
^.lucrative practice in London vict 1
and Paris. He organized an by h
ambulance corps which did by v
grea't .service after the battle of poun
Sedan. tnbu
He was given medals of honor the
and decorations by the kings of them
several European countries. He and ]
was the first American member the i
of several learned societies in built
Europe and America and was have
president of the American Med- here
ical Society in 1876. He was force
the author of a number of vol- seen
umes, one being an authority left
on female surgery. mont
After Sedan he was enabled bar
to start his woman's hospital in town
New York and we are told that even
so many persons flocked to see counl
his operations that restrictions not s
( .were imposed which he consid- drink
ered officious and drastic and he Th
\ returned to France. That ac- tions
counts, in part, for a recent probj
L declaration by The New York acres
7* Sun that Dr. Sims seems to be lands
honored abroad more than in to b<
his native land. and
The German government's farm
monthly medical periodical re- mens
cently printed a photograph of Cuba
Dr. Sims and a description of
his life work. This great jour- Ki
nal says:
"America is entitled to honor You
in the history of operative
gynecology. The names of Mc- I t
Dowell, Nott, Battey, Emmet, one j
Bobeman, Edebohls and Kelly Ev
will be known for all time, but retar
none shines with such lustre as aside
the name of Marion Sims." hum<
The achievments of its citi- othei
zens are the greatest assets and very
the greatest heritages of a Ye
country. The courage and "Wh
genius of Marion Sims, especial- my <
ly in view of his sad entry into youn
the profession are such as were me.
