A GENEROUS GIFT.
An Unknown Benefactor Gives $100,000 to the Medical School.
During the recess it was announced that through the generosity of a prominent merchant of Boston, whose name is not made known, a chair of comparative pathology is to be founded at the Medical School. The benefactor advances $100,000 for the endowment of the chair. This will be the first establishment of a professorship of comparative pathology in any American university.
The professor is to be a member of the medical faculty, and is to study the conditions and causes of diseases in both men and animals, and the means of avoiding and curing disease. He is to devote himself to the duties of his professorship, without engaging, as a rule, in private practice.
