ANNOUNCEMENT,

Session 1899-1900.

THE MEDICAL COLLEGE OF VIRGINIA, situated at Richmond, a city of 100,000 inhabitants, with adjoining towns which increase the available population to about 140,000, offers to the student instruction by teachers of many years of continued experience with unlimited means of illustration at their command.

The efficiency of the instruction in this School has been demonstrated by the high standing of its graduates before Examining Boards of the Army, Navy, and Marine Hospital Service, in competitive examinations, and before various State Boards, as well as by the selection of its alumni to be professors in other Medical Schools.

In order to keep the School fully abreast with the times in regard to modern methods of teaching, the course has been extended to cover four years. This College was the first Medical School in the State to adopt this advance.

The College is a member in good standing of the Southern Medical College Association.

In order to still further extend the range of its professional instruction, the College has established a School of Dentistry and a School of Pharmacy. In another part of this Announcement will be found an account of these two important departments.

EQUIPMENT.

The main College Building contains three large and commodious lecture balls; a new dissecting-hall, with the most modern appointments; a physiological laboratory; a hygienic laboratory; a library and reading room well stocked with books and medical periodicals; together with rooms devoted to the executive work of the College. Adjoining the main building is the new Laboratory Building, recently erected to meet the requirements of a constantly increasing number of students, and specially planned for laboratory purposes. Attached to the College is the Old Dominion Hospital, which is fully equipped after the newest and most approved plans governing sanitation and comfort.

GENERAL PLAN OF INSTRUCTION.

Instruction is given in a four years’ graded course which comprises didactic lectures, with demonstrations, clinical teaching, recitations, examinations, and practical work in well-equipped laboratories.

LECTURES.

Complete courses of lectures, appropriately illustrated by drawings, models and demonstrations, are given during the collegiate year on the following subjects: Anatomy, Physiology, Embryology, Chemistry, Toxicology, Materia Medica, Therapeutics, Histology, Pathology, Bacteriology, Practice of Medicine, Principles and Practice of Surgery, Abdominal Surgery, Genito-Urinary Surgery and Venereal Diseases, Obstetrics, Diseases of Women, Diseases of Children, Diseases of the Eye, Ear and Throat, Diseases of the Nervous System, Diseases of the Skin, Hygiene, Medical Jurisprudence, Electrotherapeutics and History of Medicine.

LABORATORY INSTRUCTION.

A prominent position in the Curriculum is accorded to practical work in the laboratories, as follows:

Anatomical Laboratory.-During the past year the Faculty has constructed a new Dissecting-Hall after the most approved modern plans with regard to lighting and ventilation. Here the study of practical anatomy is pursued in daily dissections, and every convenience is afforded for cleanliness and comfort in the work.

Physiological Laboratory.-This Laboratory has been equipped with all the necessary apparatus for demonstration of the various processes of the human organism and the chemical changes incident to the functions of the normal body.

Hygiene Laboratory.-The advances in preventive medicine have brought Hygiene into a degree of prominence, which requires practical study in the important investigations relating to the purity of air, water, food stuffs, etc., for which purpose this Laboratory has been arranged.

Chemical Laboratory–This large and commodious Laboratory is situated in the new Laboratory Building, the second story of which is devoted to its use. Here, with every appliance necessary for the pursuit of chemical investigation, the student has the means of perfecting himself in this branch of science.

Histological, Pathological and Bacteriological Laboratory–This Laboratory occupies the third story of the new Laboratory Building, and is plentifully equipped with fine microscopes, and all other apparatus necessary for the pursuit of the study of these branches. A well stocked animal room in connection with this Laboratory and a large collection of pathological specimens render instruction in this department thorough and comprehensive.

Surgical Laboratory–Thorough instruction is here given by operations on the cadaver in the technique of all the important surgical procedures.

CLINICAL INSTRUCTION.

Clinical instruction is fully recognized as an indispensable factor in teaching the art and science of medicine, and the Faculty is able to supply it in abundance, utilizing for this purpose the material furnished by the different public charities and asylums of the city, State and municipal, as well as that afforded by the Old Dominion Hospital, its annex and the City Dispensary.

During the past session almost every kind of surgical operation was performed in the amphitheater of the Old Dominion Hospital in the presence of the class, in addition to daily clinics held in the Departments of Practice of Medicine, Diseases of Children, Orthopedic Surgery, Diseases of the Eye, Ear and Throat, General Surgery and Venereal Diseases, Abdominal Surgery and Diseases of Women, Diseases of the Skin, and Diseases of the Nervous System. The Faculty will in the future be able to provide ample Obstetrical clinics in the Maternity Hospital, which occupies a large and commodious building adjoining the Old Dominion Hospital, and which has been thoroughly equipped for obstetrical purposes.

The City Dispensary, which occupies the first story of the new Laboratory Building, is well arranged for the treatment of out-door patients, and comprises the following departments:

1. Department of Practice of Medicine.
2. Department of General Surgery and Genito-Urinary Diseases.
3. Department of Diseases of Women and Abdominal Surgery.
4. Department of Obstetrics.
5. Department of Diseases of Children.
6. Department of Diseases of the Eye, Ear and Throat.
7. Department of Diseases of the Nervous System.
8. Department of Diseases of the Skin.

Thousands of patients attend this institution annually, and are treated for every form and variety of diseases. Its facilities for the management, treatment and care of these patients are fully equal to those offered by the best medical colleges of this country.

A special feature of clinical instruction which will be inaugurated during the coming session will be the use of this Dispensary for sectional clinics, in which, by instruction to small groups of students, every facility will be given for the observation of patients and for the demonstration of methods of physical diagnosis.

These departments are under the care of the physicians and surgeons whose names will be found elsewhere under the head of “Dispensary Staff.”

Special clinics in Diseases of the Heart and Lungs are held at the City Almshouse and State Penitentiary.

RECITATIONS.

Supplementary to the regular lectures by the Professors, recitations are held weekly by the Instructors upon the preceding lectures, and monthly by the Professors.

CURRICULUM.

The Curriculum consists of a four years’ graded course, and the student, taking up in his first year only the elementary branches, is enabled to lay a solid foundation, upon which his subsequent education may be advantageously constructed. Examinations in each course will be held at the end of the session on all subjects taught during the year. After the session of 1899-1900 only those students will he allowed to enter the advanced courses who have made seventy-five per cent. of the previous course.

Chemistry is taught in this College with special reference to its relations to practical Medicine. Particular attention is bestowed upon such matters as the detection of impurities in medicines, securing compatibility in prescriptions, testing for poisons and treatment of poisoning, examination of urine, and Physiological and Pathological Chemistry. As a knowledge of the principles of the sciences is all important, these are fully explained, and in a manner which is adapted to the comprehension of the beginner in the study. The Laboratory Course is conducted on an extended plan. Each student is furnished with a working-table, and will be required to do practical chemical work. There is no additional charge for the Laboratory Course.

The general principles of Toxicology and its special applications are clearly explained, and full consideration is given to the many other important subjects belonging to Medical Jurisprudence.

PRACTICE OF MEDICINE.

PROP. H. H. Levy, M. D.

RAMON D. GARCIN, M. D, Instructor.

This branch is to be taught, in accordance with the principles of a graded course, in two systematic, separate series of didactic lectures with ample clinical illustration.

The students will be thoroughly instructed in the most approved methods of examining patients with a view to making correct diagnoses, and throughout the two years’ course of study every effort will be made and opportunity sought to give each member of the class direct and careful clinical instruction.

GYNECOLOGY AND ABDOMINAL SURGERY.

PROF. GEO. BEN. JOHNSTON, M.D.

CHAS. R. ROBINS, M. D., Instructor.

The instruction in these branches is thorough and practical, comprising a systematic course of didactic lectures illustrated by operations performed before the class. These operations are very numerous and of every kind, the Old Dominion Hospital, the City Free Dispensary, and other institutions, furnishing excellent opportunity therefor.

SURGERY.

PROF. LEWIS C. BOSHER, M. D.

D. MEADE MANN, M. D, Instructor

W. H. LYNN, M.D. Instructor

Instruction in this course will cover three years. Beginning with the second year Principles of Surgery will be taught in weekly didactic lectures supplemented by systematic examinations. In the third year the study of Genito-Urinary Surgery and Venereal Diseases will be taken up and taught in weekly lectures liberally Illustrated by appropriate plates, charts arid diagrams, and all other accessories helpful to a perfect comprehension of the subject. Practice of Surgery will be taught in the fourth year. In addition to weekly lectures the student will have constant as well as abundant opportunity on the clinical days to witness the performance of a great variety of surgical operations, and if observing the practical application to injuries and diseases of those principles of the art which he has heard taught in lectures.

The student will be practically taught by the Demonstrator of Surgery in the Laboratory of Operative Surgery how to prepare for and perform all of the operations of Surgery.

The Instructors of Surgery will teach the highly important branch of Minor Surgery in all of its practical details.

Genito-Urinary and Venereal Diseases are treated daily in large numbers at the College Dispensary, where, by reason of its proximity to the lecture-room, the student has them constantly under his observation.

OBSTETRICS AND DISEASES Or THE PUERPERAL STATE.

PROF. J. PACE MASSIR, M. D.

WM. AUGUSTUS LEE, M. D., Demonstrator.

DANIEL J. COLEMAN, M. D., Instructor

In this department a complete course of lectures is delivered, in which the principles of Modern Obstetrics are thoroughly taught. Free use of models and drawings is made in the illustration of lectures. The demonstrator of this branch divides the class into sections, and thoroughly drills each section in the mechanism of labor by means of the manikin. Within the past year the College has organized and now has in operation a well-equipped Obstetrical Hospital known as “The Maternity Hospital,” thus adding greatly to the facilities heretofore offered in the teaching of Practical and Clinical Obstetrics. This is the only hospital of its kind in the State. In connection with the Maternity Hospital is operated an “Outside Obstetric Service,” the object of which is to furnish skilled obstetrical attendance to indigent women at their homes. Members of the graduating class are allowed to attend in turn these confinement cases in company with the attending physician, and to assist in delivery.

PROF. C. A. BLANTON, M.D.

B. W. RAWLES, M. D., Instructor

In this important branch every effort will be made, by means of a systematic course of didactic lectures and recitations, to render the instruction clear, practical, and thorough. The fundamental principles of Infant Feeding and Hygiene will receive a large share of attention. Prominence will be given to the latest accepted teachings in Bacteriology. The peculiarities of diseases as they occur in children will be pointed out and dwelt upon. The Dispensary connected with the College, and other charitable institutions, afford ample clinical material for this department.

GENERAL AND SPECIAL ANATOMY.

PROF. WILLIAM P. MATHEWS, M. D.

J. FULMER BRIGHT, M. D., Instructor in Anatomy and Assistant Demonstrator of Anatomy.

The College Museum is amply supplied with elaborate models, new plates, drawings, and elegant preparations, and these will be used to illustrate the lectures on Anatomy. Practical demonstrations will be made before the class upon fresh dissections of the cadaver.

First-course students will be required at the end of the first year to stand an examination on Osteology, Arthrology and Myology. At the close of the second year second-course students will be permitted to come up for the final examination in Anatomy, provided they have completed the required two years’ course in dissection under the Ekemonstrator of Anatomy.

PRACTICAL ANATOMY.

CLIFTON M. MILLER, M. D., Demonstrator.

This department will be under the charge of the Demonstrator, who will give the student every aid in this important branch by demonstrations and lectures. There is no additional charge for anatomical material.

HISTOLOGY, PATHOLOGY, AND BACTERIOLOGY,

PROF. E. C. LEVY, M.D.

R. B. TEUSLER, M. D., Demonstrators and Instructors.

WM. H. LYNE. M. D.

New and thoroughly equipped laboratories offer unsurpassed facilities for the practical teaching of these branches.

Normal Histology is taught during the first year by lectures and practical work in the preparation and microscopic examination of the chief organs and tissues of the body.

Bacteriology is taken up during the second year. After lectures upon technique the student is enabled to put his theoretical knowledge into practice by work upon the non-pathogenic micro-organisms, after which the pathogenic ones are dealt with. Special attention is paid to the practical bearings of Bacteriology upon the diagnosis and treatment of disease. When necessary, animal experiments are performed to illustrate the action of pathogenic bacteria.

Pathology is taught during the third year. The College Museum contains specimens of many rare pathological conditions, while frequent necropsies enable the student to familiarize himself with the gross lesions of disease. The Laboratory is supplied with an excellent collection of diseased organs and tissues which are used for sectioning and distributing to the class, each member of which is required to prepare and mount specimens of the chief pathological conditions arising in the human subject. There is no additional charge for material used in this course.

MATERIA MEDICA AND THERAPEUTICS.

PROF. ROBERT P. WILLIAMS, M. D.

A. H. GREINER, M. D., Instructor.

Instruction in this department is given by didactic lectures, recitations and demonstrations, and covers three years. The first year’s course embraces a study of the principles of Prescription Writing, the modes of combining and administering drugs, and a description of the individual drugs, their properties, preparations and dosage. A large cabinet of crude drugs and medicinal preparations attached to this department affords ample illustration of this part of the course, and affords the student an opportunity to familiarize himself with the characteristics of the drugs considered in the lectures.

In the second year the study of the Physiological action of the individual drugs is pursued, together with a consideration of the poisons and their antidotes, and the incompatibilities. In this course the student is thoroughly drilled in writing prescriptions for special effects in the combination of drugs.

The work of the third year in this department is devoted to Therapeutics, and includes, besides a study of the application of drugs to the relief and cure of disease, a consideration of the principles of the important remedial agents, Dietetics, Massage, and Hydrotherapy. In this course the student is further exercised in writing prescriptions to meet special therapeutic indications.

DISEASES OF THE EYE, EAR, AND THROAT.

PROF. JOHN P. DAVIDSON, M. D.

D. A. KUYK, M. D., Instructor.

In this department sufficient time will be utilized to enable the student to acquire such special knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of the eye and ear as will aid him in the comprehension of diseased conditions of these organs. Special consideration will given to those diseased conditions of the eye and ear which the general practitioner is called upon to treat.

The relations which diseases of the eye bear to constitutional conditions, particularly those complicating nervous disorders, both functional and organic, will be discussed as far as possible.

The instruction in diseases of the ear will be extensive, and will include the brain complications that frequently accompany purulent otic processes.

Ample consideration will he given to the important subject of nasal diseases as well as to nasal surgery, so as to afford the student opportunities to acquaint himself with abnormal conditions of the nose.

In the department of Laryngology clinical as well as didactic instruction will be given. The student will be taught the use of the laryngoscope; also the method of intuition and all other operative procedures in and about the larynx, the free Dispensary connected with the College furnishing material for this and all other clinics.

STATE STUDENTS.

The Faculty of the Medical College of Virginia, in evidence of its appreciation of the annual appropriation made by the State for the maintenance of this institution, has determined to receive and educate, free of all charges save Matriculation and Diploma fees, ten students, to be appointed in the following manner: The Senators have been arranged in groups of four, and will bd invited to select a student, and should said Senators agree on one student he will be received, provided his preliminary education and moral qualifications are such as accord with the requirements for Matriculation. In the event that there is more than one nomination, there must be a competitive examination, and the appointment will be given to the student who, in this competition, secures the highest standing, said examination to be of such a kind as is commonly required of a first-grade teacher of a public school. Should a student, for any reason, not continue his studies at the Medical College of Virginia, or graduates and receives his Diploma, then the four Senators from whose district said student was received will be invited to fill his place in the manner above designated.

FEES.

The Medical College of Virginia on and after January 1, 1899, required of its medical students four years’ study before they could apply for graduation. It was determined that this advance in medical education should be in no sense a hardship to matriculants, and the College being a State institution and receiving an appropriation from the Commonwealth, the Faculty has therefore reduced the fees for medical tuition from $90 to $65 per session. Thus it will be seen that at this school students will have the advantage of a most approved course of medical education at no greater cost than heretofore. This sum of $65 includes the fees for Matriculation, Lectures, Regular Examinations, Clinics, Demonstrations in Anatomy, Chemistry, and all other branches, embracing Laboratory Work and Anatomical Material.

The examination fee for the degree of Doctor of Medicine (paid only once) is $30.

No reduction from the above fees will be made. All fees are payable in advance.

Students who have paid their fees for four regular sessions in the Medical Department are allowed to attend subsequent sessions without charge for the Professors’ fees.

Graduates of the Medical Department of this College are admitted free. Graduates of other colleges in good standing are admitted on the payment of a Matriculation Fee of $5. This concession does not include Laboratory Courses and Dissecting, for which a reasonable charge will be made.

ANNOUNCEMENT, SESSION 1899-1900.

IN presenting this, the Third Annual Announcement of the Virginia School of Dentistry of the Medical College of Virginia, special attention is called to the fact that this is purely a DENTAL SCHOOL, not directly connected with any other department of the College.

The Faculty in this Department will maintain the same high standard of teaching which has characterized the mother school. The Collateral Branches of Medicine will be thoroughly taught, but as they may best meet the needs of the dental practitioner. The large surgical clinics of the Old Dominion Hospital and the City Free Dispensary, both of which adjoin the College, are open to dental students, thus giving them an opportunity to become familiar with the diseases and the operations of practical surgery.

PLAN OF INSTRUCTION.

Instruction is given in a three-years graded course, which comprises Didactic Lectures with Demonstrations, Clinical Teaching, Recitations, Examinations, and Practical Work in the Infirmary and Laboratories.

LECTURES.

Complete Courses of Lectures will be given by the Faculty on the following branches: Principles of Dentistry, Operative Dentistry, Prosthetic Dentistry, Oral Surgery, Orthodontia, Operative Technique, Prosthetic Technique, General Anatomy, Dental Anatomy, Practical Anatomy, Chemistry, Metallurgy, Physiology, Hygiene, Materia Medica, Therapeutics, Histology, Pathology, Bacteriology, and Dental Jurisprudence.

The Courses are so arranged as to cover the entire session, and it is of material importance that students should be in attendance the first day.

CLASSES

Students will be divided into three classes–Junior, Intermediate and Senior.

INFIRMARY AND LABORATORY INSTRUCTION.

The benefits to be derived by the Dental Student from Infirmary and Laboratory Practice cannot be overestimated. Each student, therefore, will have opportunity, from a well-assured supply of clinical material, of gaining practical knowledge and skill in manipulation, thus preparing him to enter, after graduation, with confidence upon the active duties of his profession.

The Infirmary is kept open during the interim between sessions in order to give students the fullest possible advantage of clinical instruction. There is no charge made to students for this privilege. This arrangement will enable students to become proficient in operative and prosthetic practice.

SCHOOL OF PHARMACY.

ANNOUNCEMENT. SESSION 1899-1900

THIS important department of the Medical College of Virginia has been established to furnish to students the means of acquiring a practical education in all branches of study relating to Pharmacy. Its connection with a College entering upon its sixty-second successful year as an educational institution warrants the statement that everything will be done to make the course of instruction thorough and complete. The necessity for a scientific as well as practical education for one who desires more than partial success in pharmaceutical work becomes daily more apparent. The rapid progress of scientific discovery pertaining to this profession makes a systematic, graded, and carefully directed course of study necessary for those who intend to follow it.

CURRICULUM.

A two-years’ graded course of instruction in Pharmacy, Materia Medica, Botany, Inorganic and Organic Chemistry, Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis, and Toxicology, consisting of lectures, practical work in well-equipped Laboratories, and recitations conducted by competent instructors, will be given.

THEORY AND PRACTICE OF PHARMACY

PROF. FRANK M. REALE, M. D.

The Lectures on Pharmacy, for both Junior and Senior Courses, will be delivered in the Pharmaceutical Laboratory, so that each student may have before him his individual outfit of apparatus, and thereby be enabled to follow with exyenments of his own the practical demonstrations of his instructor.

Instruction in the Junior Course will consist of a series of lectures, in which the various pharmaceutical operations will be explained and illustrated. After a consideration of the Pharmacopoeias, the subjects of Weights and Measures, Specific Gravity, the Generation, Application and Measurement of Heat, Solution, Dialysis, etc., be taken up, followed by practical instruction in the manufacture the more important Galenical Preparations of the Pharmacopoeia.

In the Senior Course the Inorganic Chemicals of the Pharmacopeia will be taken up. Their methods of manufacture, tests for identity and purity, and uses in medicine and pharmacy will receive special attention. Following this, the Organic Chemicals of the Pharmacopoeia will be treated in the same manner. The latter part of this course will be devoted to an exhaustive consideration of Prescriptions and Dispensing. Therapeutical, physical, and chemical incompatibilities will be explained, and the methods of surmounting incident difficulties considered. In their practical work the students will be under the immediate supervision of their instructors, and abundant opportunity for experience in compounding will be furnished.

 

ORGANIC AND ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY.

PROF. JAMES M. WHITFIELD, M. D.

The course in Organic Chemistry will be given in the Senior year. The aim of this course is to instruct the student in the general principles of the subject and to familiarize him with the composition, properties, and uses of the drugs and reagents of the Pharmacopoeia.

The course in Analytical Chemistry will cover a period of two sessions. During the Junior year the time will be devoted to the qualitative examination of substances, both organic and inorganic.

During the Senior year Quantitative Analysis, both Gravimetric and Volumetric, will be studied.

The course in Analytical Chemistry will be shaped in accordance with the requirements of the U. S. Pharmacopoeia, the idea in view being to instruct students in methods useful to Pharmacists rather than to graduate Analytical Chemists. Ample facilities for practical work have been provided for members of this class in the new Chemical Laboratory, one portion of which has been liberally furnished and set apart for their exclusive use.

GENERAL AND INORGANIC CHEMISTRY AND TOXICOLOGY.

PROF. WILLIAM H. TAYLOR, M. D.

These subjects will be taught by lectures, supplemented by work in the Laboratory. In the lectures on Chemistry the general principles of the science will be presented in a form readily understood, and so as to make their application to particular cases easy. In the consideration of the several chemical substances their pharmaceutical relations will be constantly kept in view, and the student will be put in possession of all that is necessary to give him a complete practical knowledge of medicinal agents as they are regarded by the pharmaceutical chemist.

Great attention will be paid to Toxicology. Its principles and practice will be elaborately explained, and much care will be bestowed upon serviceable instruction in the methods of detecting poisons and in the treatment of poisoning.

MATERIA MEDICA.

PROF. Ro. F. WILLIAMS, M. D.

A general course in Materia Medica is given in the first year, embracing a description of the individual drugs, their source, habitat, physical properties, chemical constituents, preparations and dosage, the modes of combining and administering drugs, and their incompatibilities, and the study of poisons and their antidotes. The student is thoroughly drilled in the art of prescription writing as a means of acquiring ease in reading prescriptions and detecting errors.

A large cabinet of drugs and medicinal preparations attached to this department affords the student an opportunity to familiarize himself with the characteristics of the drugs considered in the lecture.

BOTANY AND PHARMACOGNOSY

PROF. F H. BEADLES, M. D.

The student will be thoroughly instructed as to that plant in general; the morphology, physiology, and biology of flowering plants, including roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits, and seeds, and the methods of naming and classifying plants.

The object of the course in Pharmacognosy is to impress on the mind of the student the importance of dose and accurate observation; to instill in him right methods of studying drugs; to familiarize him, by the direct and systematic study of the materials themselves, with the structural characteristics of the different parts of plants employed in medicine; and to prepare him to detect with certainty sophistications and substitutions.

PHARMACEUTICAL LABORATORY

Experience has shown that the amount of laboratory work usually required of pharmacy students is insufficient for their thorough education. Believing that this, the practical part of their course, is of supreme importance, it has been decided to devote a largely increased amount of time to laboratory instruction. The work in this department will include all of the pharmaceutical operations from the manufacture of the simple preparations to those requiring the most skillful and careful manipulation of special apparatus in their production.

PRACTICAL DISPENSING.

Connected with the College is the City Free Dispensary, where from fifty to one hundred prescriptions are compounded daily.

All students who are not employed in a dispensing pharmacy will be required to devote two hours each week day to the compounding of prescriptions in the Laboratory connected with this Dispensary, and to the manufacture of the pharmaceutical products which are dispensed. This work will be performed under the supervision of licensed pharmacists, and as it will consist of exactly the kind of work that will be required of the students by their future employers, its practical value to them cannot be overestimated.

OLD DOMINION HOSPITAL

1225 East Marshall Street.

THIS Hospital, under a Board of Lady Managers, is situated on Marshall between College and Twelfth streets, is very desirably located in a quiet yet central portion of the city, and is easily accessible, one car-line passing the front door and two other lines, which run from the eastern to the western limits of the city, being within a few blocks of the institution.

The building, originally constructed according to the best designs for a Hospital, has recently undergone such remodeling and improvements as to bring it fully up to the standard of modern sanitary requirements. The plumbing throughout the house is entirely new and of the most approved character, and every point of sanitation has been carefully attended to.

The Hospital contains, besides excellent wards, numerous private rooms, all of which are light and airy, and are comfortably and in many instances elegantly furnished.

Three spacious verandas afford convalescents the great advantage of obtaining air and exercise with a minimum of fatigue.

The food, nursing, and general attention to the patients are all that could be desired.

This Institution was designated by the United States Government as its Hospital for the care of soldiers stationed at and near Richmond during the Spanish-American war.

During the encampment of the U. S. Volunteers at Richmond two hundred and fifty-one officers and soldiers were treated at this Hospital for Measles, Typhoid Fever, and other dangerous diseases. So successful was the treatment of these men that only four of the total number received succumbed to disease.

The new and admirably equipped Maternity Hospital is an annex of the Old Dominion Hospital, and its nursing is done by the Old Dominion nurses.

TERMS OF ADMISSION

The charge for beds in wards is $5 per week. The charge for private rooms ranges from $10 to $25 per week, according to location. This includes board and general nursing.

The services of an exclusive nurse, laundry expenses, physician’s fees, medicines, and anaesthesia are extras. To patients recommended by this Hospital’s Benevolent Societies there are special rates.

A specified number of patients will be cared for free of all charge.

To other indigent patients a uniform rate of $5 per week has been established.

Whenever there is room and the condition of the patient does not forbid, companions can be accommodated at the rate of $15 per week. Charges are payable weekly in advance to the Clerk. Charity cases are the only exception to this rule.

Letters of inquiry may be sent to any member of the Staff of Physicians or to the Superintendent of the Hospital, or personal interviews may be held with any of these authorities.

TRAINING SCHOOL FOR NURSES OF OLD DOMINION HOSPITAL.

Connected with the Old Dominion Hospital is a Training School for Nurses, conducted by the Superintendent of the Hospital and the Faculty of the College.

HISTORICAL NOTE

THE MEDICAL COLLEGE OF VIRGINIA was organized in 1838 by Doctors John Cullen, Augustus L. Warner, Thomas Johnson, Lewis W. Chamberlayne, Richard L. Bohannon and Socrates Maupin, under the name of the Medical Department of Hampden-Sidney College, and was the first medical school to stem the tide of students then going by thousands to northern colleges. Owing to a disagreement between the Governing Board of Hampden-Sidney College and the Professors of the Medical Department, the Legislature of Virginia, on February 25, 1854, gave a charter to the Institution under the name of the MEDICAL COLLEGE OF VIRGINIA.

In 1861, when the war broke out and the Southern students at Philadelphia seceded and came to Richmond, the College received from the Legislature of Virginia, then in session, $30,000 to build a Hospital, on condition that the Faculty would deed to the State the College building and appurtenances, which tip to that time belonged in fee simple to the Faculty, inasmuch as the land on which the College was built had been deeded to it by the city of Richmond, subject to a mortgage of $15,000 loaned by the State to equip the school. This deed, a munificent present, worth at that time $40,000, is on record, and the College thus became the entire property of the State of Virginia.

In all these years the College has supplied Virginia and other Southern States with the rank and file of the profession, the working medical men of the counties and towns, and has made a noble record. During the War it was the only medical school in the Confederacy, and held during that period two annual sessions, supplying the army with a staff of surgeons, whose history, as registered in the army records of the United States, published by act of Congress, is a glorious illustration of their hard and faithful service.

The following gentlemen have been, or now are, Professors in the institution: Enieritus Professors-Doctors B. R. Wellford, L. S. Joynes, Hunter McGuire, O. F. Manson, F. D. Cunningham, J. S.
