Dr.. Geo. w. Hubbard Speaks.

"Thirty-two years ago DR.. R. F.
Boyd came to Nashville and com.
menced the study of medicine. We
had just finished the only building of
Meharry, and perhaps he was enc of
the first to occupy a room in that
building. came in close touch
with Dr. Boyd, because ! became bet
ter acquainted with those who at
tended the college at that time than
in after years, because of the small
number. He finished his course
with credit to himself, graduating in
1882, and in the following year was
chosen Assistant Professor of Chem
istry; next year he was elected to
the professorship of physiology
which position he held for ten years
Then he was elected to the professor
ship OF genycology and clinical medi-
cine, and ever since he has been con-
nected with Meharry. He is one
of the Oldest members of the faculty
He was particularly interested in
hospital work. His first step made
in the Boyd building, next he ,oc. p
in this work was in his office on
Cherry street, and then in the Boyd
building, next he purchased the build
ing on Fourth avenue, South, and
established Mercy Hospital, ami for
nection with HMeharrythaton shrdl
ten years he had the hospital in that
building connected with Meharry.
The work was successfully carried
on. Great was the relief he gave
to sufferers. He seemed to be es-
pecially adapted to hospital work.
In 1887 he graduated in dentistry.
His work here as a physician, you
know. There are three things
want to impress upon you this morn
ing worthy of imitation in his life.
Lives of Great men all remind us,
That we can make our lives
sublime;
And departing, leave behind us,
Footprints in the sands of time"
footprints that perhaps another

"The first is that he was man
of good habits. He never touched
an intoxicating drink, and It was
only with difficulty that he could be
persuaded to take it when it was
He never touched tobac-
co in any form.
The second thing want to en-
phasize is the amount of work he did
over on Cherry for the suffering
brethren of Nashville. suppose

There are some doctors who will say

thirty years out of that you take

that a man with the medical knowl-
edge and ability of DR. Boyd should
have died with such an ordinary dis
ease as acute Indigestion. But he has
gone, and he has left a vacancy in
many places The one that I am
