Book Description
Excerpt from History of Medicine in New Jersey and of Its Medical Men, From the Settlement of the Province to A D. 1800 In the year 1875 the Medical Society of New Jersey resolved to publish its "Old Transactions," from its institution in 1766 to 1800. My official relations to the Society involved the editorship of the volume. I had previously found, after much enquiry, that nothing was known of the character of its founders, not even their residence; nor had anything been published heretofore, which furnished any information upon the condition of Medicine in New Jersey. A number of historical addresses had been read before the Society, and had been published. None of these covered the ground which I found myself prompted to occupy in the preparation of this work. It was begun with the purpose of making a record which should be a supplement of a few pages to the old records which I was charged with editing. I soon discovered that I had entered upon a new historical field, and had commenced to glean "even among the sheaves." I did not resist the inviting opportunity which was presented, and have, for five years, found pleasure and profit in thus employing my leisure time.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Not illustrated. 1879 edition. Excerpt: ... of those, over whom divine Providence hath constituted me, under our Sovereign, superintendant or chief overseer/'1 Barclay was at this time Governor under the Proprietors in East Jersey, with whom Coxe entered into an agree-. ment settling the line of partition between East and West"Jersey, from little Egg Harbor to "the utmost north partition point," and thence east to the Hudson river? This line, though not proving to be a final adjustment of a controversy which lasted many years, was, in a general way, substantially the line of division finally adopted. In 1691 Coxe conveyed the government to the West Jersey Society, composed of forty-eight persons, and 1 Smith's History. 1 Ibid. Cox: -: . CRAIG. finally sold out his interest to Sir Thomas"Lane for 9,000. In a few years thereafter (1702) the Proprietors of East and West Jersey surrendered to the Crown all the powers of government which they supposed were vested in them, and were confirmed in all their rights in the soil with the quit rents. In November 16, of the same year, Lord Cornbury was appointed by the Queen, "Captain-General and Governor-in-Chief of Nova Caesarea or New Jersey in America."1 DAVID CRAIG. The Craig family (Craige, Crage, Crag, Cragg), came to Elizabethtown about 1680-85. Dr. David resided and practised medicine in Rahway. He was born 1753, died 1781. Dr. Isaac Morse who spent most of his life in Elizabethtown, succeeded to Dr., Craig's practice.

Book Description
Excerpt from History of Medicine in New York, Three Centuries of Medical Progress, Vol. 2 In Spite of his intimate friendship with Franklin, Governor Col den, probably from his Official connections, continued to be in tensely loyal to Great Britain when the troubles with the Mother Country began. He insisted that the stamped paper made com pulsory by the famous stmp Act must be used, but soon found that the people of the colony were against him. Colden was now a very Old man, past eighty-seven, but he still had pluck, so he re tired to Fort George with a garrison of marines. It is said that he ordered the marines to fire on the populace when they were sedi tious, but the marines refused. In the disturbances which fol lowed, Colden's official carriage as lieutenant-governor was seized and burned, along with an effigy of himself, and it is said also of the devil. Finding life too uncomfortable under the circumstances in New York, Colden retired at the beginning of the Revolution to a large estate which he owned near Newburgh, called Coldenham. Here he occupied himself entirely with his favorite sciences, espe cially botany, electricity and mathematics. His home had been the meeting place for the learned men of the colonies, and his high est pleasure in life had been to entertain them, but the disturbance due to the Revolutionary War interfered with this, and the follow ing year, on September 28th, 1776, only a few months after the Declaration of Independence, the physician, scientist, governor, passed away.
