We had a nice turnout for the cemetery tour yesterday and enjoyed the company of Dr. Jesse Hingson and his students. The temperature was 86 and the humidity 100% so those in attendance were real troopers.
The subject was the Civil War. I digressed slightly due to the reference to the grave of Dr. Mary Bruson, a female physician, who volunteered for the Union Army.
I just had to retell the stories of the other female physician who served in the Civil War as well as the woman who was the first graduate of an American Medical School. Look back to the June postings for their histories and the wonderful letter written by Dr, Bruson of her experience of meeting President Lincoln. And thank you for coming.
