Dr. Warren's address reads in part: "This gentleman was one of the ablest practitioners in the United States. In the West he was considered as without a superior . while warm & decided in discussion he was not dogmatical and gave an agreeable influence to all he said by the openness and amenity of the manner in which he said it . the respect for him of the profession and community is derived from the noble manner in which he contended against the fatal epidemic of cholera . he continued to expose himself to the disease till he was destroyed by it." Also laid in is a 1961 letter of presentation from one Harrison descendant to another. <br/><br/> Various publishers hardcover books
