    APPENDIX. HISTORY OF OCCURRENCES Relative to the Medieal College. Extracted from the Minute Booh of the Medical Society, in chronolo- gical order, in which Dr. Dickson's omissions are supplied. March 1st, 1822.—A communication was received from the Examin- ing Board at Columbia, enclosing Dr. Cooper's Address, suggesting the establishment of a Medical School in the State ; referred to a commit- tee of three, Drs. Joseph Johnson, Manning and M. Holbrook. April 1st.—A letter from Dr. Cooper, on the same subject. May 1st.—The committee report favorably, &c. July 1st.—A second letter from Dr. Cooper. Nov. 22d.—A committee of five appointed to prepare a memorial for the Legislature upon the incorporation and establishment of a Medi- cal College. [N. B. As Dr. Dickson has chosen to assert, that not a single name of all those who took an active part in the proceedings which resulted in the foundation and success of the Medical College, is to be found in the long list of its present Professors and Trustees, it becomes neces- sary to detail the names of the members, who were present when i..e various propositions, in relation to the Medical College, were discussed. It would be invidious to mention who are the friends, and who the enemies of the Medical Society ; because we conceive that no man of delicate sensibility or refined feelings, would continue a member of a society to which he was personally hostile : and we would not, therefore, wound any individual, by attributing to him improperly, perhaps, the foul stigmaof en- deavoring to destroy, by his parasitic embrace, an institution that he was bound, in honor and honesty, to protect and cherish.] At this meeting of the Society, the following members were present. Dr. J. Moultrie, Jun. President,. Drs. Moultrie, Wilson, Manning, I. M. Wilson, Michel, Grimke, North, Waring, Fronte, Frost, T. G. Prioleau, T. Y. Simons, M. Holbrook, and Campbell. The Committee consisted of Drs. Moultrie, S. Wilson, Sen. Grimke, Waring and T. G. Prioleau. Nov. 25th.— Memorial reported and adopted, &c. Present, Urs. Moultrie, Jun. S. Wilson, Sen. Manning, Joseph Johnson, I. M. Wilson, Michel T. Y. Simons, Dickson, Ramsay, Greenland, Waring, T. G. Prioleau, Frost, Ravenel, Aikin, Grimke, James Glover and Camp- Feb 1st, 1823.—Address made to the Society, on the establishment of a Medical School, by Dr. Dickson, and recommending a committee
