Gold Hill daily news. [volume] (Gold Hill, N.T. [Nev.]) 1863-1882, 1871-01-16
Personal,

DR.. F. Hitler, for the last seven years
so we'll and extensively known in this
section rs a physician and surgeon, left
Virginia at Don to-day for San Fran
cisco, where he will henceforward re-
side and practice his profession in a
more extended and lucrative field than
this is at the present time. Now that
he has left, we cannot consistently be
accused Of attempting to favor him in
a business way by writing this item;
but as, like all prominent men, the
Doctor has been willfully misrepre-
sented in some points, and unjustly
dealt with in others, we simply through
sincere and appreciatiye friendship
assume the privilege Of saying q few
good words for him ut parting. We
do not propose to discuss his merits rs
4 homeopathic physician and against
those Of the old school; he has fought
his " battles pretty well thus. far,
and is fully able to continue doing so.
We simply judge of him from square
personal observation and particularly
good facilities for so doing. The world
Judges doctors, the same rs other men,
by the great criterion Of success, and
only the envious and ignorant will
allow their prejudices to pervert their
honest convictions. During his past
seven years practice at Virginia City
DIR. Hitler has been remarkably sue
cessful, losing very few patients indeed
compared with the immense number
of cases coming under his care. This
has been particularly observable in his
confinement cases, and also the cholera
morbus, smallpox and other epidem-
les. He is a well read physician, has
deeply studied his profession, and
therefore his practice has been ne cN-
detrimental guess work, but the result
Of enlightened views and experience.
Indeed, his graveyard record Is good
one, and one which he need not be, and
i not, ashamed of. Many prominent
citizens of Virginia, Gold Hill and vi
cinity have died through sickness these
seven years, but few or none Of them
under DIR. Killers care. 1t has been
and still Is quite common with those
preiudiced against him and his homeo-
pathic practice to attribute his une.
gualled success to "lucS,' not real
ability; yet allowing even that, 1t Is a
pretty good thing in this world OF
chances to have luck OH ones side.
Ills surgical practice has come more
Immediately under II personal OBJ
seryation; therefore we say that he
has undertaken more intricate, difficult
and important surgical cnses-promi-
nemt capital operations, such as attract
public notice-with better success than
any other surgeon in this section dur
ing the seven years of which we speak.
Like the rest of us, DIR. Hitler has his
faults and peculiaritieS, but he GER
tainly Is both earnest and honest In
his convictions and practice. An up
right, good citizen, earnestly sustain
ing all beneficial public Institutions
his true worth will be better apPre-
ciatcd now that he Is gone. HIS
estimable family follow him In 4 lew
DAYS to their new home ut the Bay
City, and n large circle Of warm, firm
and true friends, grieving to bid the
good physician and his family farewell
from our midst, unite in heartfelt we'll
wishes for the success and prosperity
of both him and his.
