Origin and History I 7 True, the prophecy made in this extract, and the ideal foreshadowed therein, were not immediately fulfilled and realized. For while the desirability of such a testimonial was generally felt and ac- knowledged, it was not until the year 1892 that any formal action was taken to give it practical effect. This action was taken at the instance of Dr. McClelland by the American Institute of Homoeopathy, in session in Washington City, D. C., and in accordance with the proposition then and there made a Committee was appointed to which the matter was referred. This Committee as originally constituted consisted of Drs. J. H. McClelland, J. P. Dake, I. T. Talbot, J. S. Mitchell and H. M. Smith, to which was subsequently added at the same meeting the names of Drs. J. B. Gregg Custis and Tulio S. Verdi of Washington City. Upon the death of the lamented Dake, Dr. Wil- liam Tod Helmuth was appointed to fill the vacancy on the Committee. Of those originally appointed the Chairman alone remains. The enthusiasm aroused by the announcement of this project was shown by the readiness with which over a thousand dollars was subscribed at . this Washington meeting. It was at once resolved that the Monument should adorn the National Capital, and should consist of a statue in bronze with a granite base and accessories. It was also stated that such a memorial would probably neces- sitate a fund of from $50,000 to $75,000. In 1893, the Committee reported progress, al- though no definite plan or design had yet been I 8 Origin and History adopted. At this meeting an Auxiliary Committee was appointed consisting of one from each State and college, which was to co-operate in the raising of funds. The Chairman of this Committee, Dr. Theodore Y. Kinney, proceeded to organize for work. The Institute subsequently by a formal vote pledged itself to the payment of $2500 toward the Monument, and this sum was afterward increased by an additional $500. In 1896, the Chairman in reporting the growing interest of the Homoeopathic profession and ad- herents throughout the country, as evidenced by sub- stantial subscriptions, stated among other things : How the project had grown from a vague and in- definite idea to a superb conception ; how the Committee had groped about in Search of a correct method of pro- cedure; and finally how by good advice and some manage- ment it had hit upon the best way to secu're the best results. Especially how, by the advice and assistance of the Na- tional Sculptors' Society, through its distinguished Presi- dent, Mr. J. Q. A. Ward, a competition was had under the supervision of the following committee of artists and architects, viz., Messrs. Daniel C. French, George E. Bissell, Olin N. Warner, Thomas Hastings and Russell Sturgis, leading to the submission of twenty-five models, by as many artists, both home and foreign. In a word, how, by the unanimous decision of the Monument Committee, in connection with the Art Committee, a design was selected which has received the unanimous approval of the Insti- tute, as well as numerous art critics who have made it a study, all of which testimony justifying the opinion so generally expressed, that it will be the finest piece of art work in the National Capital. i e ; : : : * : : Hon. John DALzell, M. C. Hon. AMos Cummings, M. C. Hon. J. H. GALLINGER, U. S. Senate. Hon. George PEABody WETMoRE, U. S. Senate. I9 Origin and History 2 I The models submitted by the various sculptors, representing American, German, French, Spanish and Italian sculpture, were then exhibited to the public at the gallery of the American Academy of Fine Arts, New York, being the first public exhibi- tion of competitive models held in this country. A private view was afforded the Press, whereby at- tention was called to the undertaking, and a pub- licity given it unobtained by any similar sculptural work. While the adopted model called for a struc- ture in Indiana limestone at a cost of $30,000, the Committee decided later to build it of more enduring material, even at an enhanced cost, and unanimously agreed upon imperishable granite at a contract price of $48,800. As this did not nearly cover the cost of the undertaking, plans were at once formed for securing $75,000, although this entire amount was not secured or expended by the Committee, owing to the fact that a large portion of the expense of raising the money was borne by individuals and organizations. Of course certain legislation by Congress was necessary involving the acceptance of the Monu- ment by the National Government, and the grant of a site upon which it might be erected. Accordingly a Joint Resolution was introduced in the Senate by the Hon. J. H. Gallinger, and in the House of Representatives by the Hon. John Dalzell. This was in the first session of the Fifty-fourth Congress. The Joint Resolution was as follows, viz: Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America assembled, That permis- 22 Origin and History sion be, and the same is hereby, granted the Hahnemann Monument Committee of the American Institute of Homoeopathy, to erect a monument in honor of Samuel Hahnemann in such place in the city of Washington, Dis- trict of Columbia, as shall be designated by the Officer in charge of the new Library building, the Joint Committee on the Library, and the Chairman of the Monument Committee; and the sum of four thousand dollars, or SO much thereof as may be necessary, is hereby appropriated out of any money in the Treasury not otherwise appro- priated, for the building of a foundation upon which to place said Monument; said Monument to be presented to the people of the United States by the American Insti- tute of Homoeopathy, kindred associations and citizens. The Joint Resolution, however, although passing both Houses of Congress, failed to receive the signa- ture of President Cleveland. The following corre- spondence in this connection will be of interest, viz: DR. J. B. GREGG CUSTIs: The Senate has passed the Joint Resolution granting a site to the Hahnemann Monument. (Signed) J. H. GALLINGER. DR. J. H. McCLELLAND: Your Monument bill has passed the House of Representatives. (Signed) JOHN DALZELL. Having passed both the Senate and the House of Representatives, nothing more was needed than the signature of the President. As may be ima- gined, while congratulating themselves upon the suc- cess of their efforts to secure the needed legislation by Congress for an eligible site, the members of the Committee were held in anxious suspense while Brig.-Gen. John M. Wilson, Hon. J. W. GRIGGs, Chief of Engineers, U. S. A. Att'y General. Col. THEo. A. BINGHAM, U. S. A. Commissioner McFARLAND. Origin and History 25 waiting for the signature of President Cleveland, without which the Joint Resolution, although pass- ing both Houses of Congress, would be of no prac- tical effect. Nor was the anxious suspense relieved until after the adjournment of Congress the follow- ing despatch was received by the Secretary of the Committee : DR. H. M. SMITH, Secretary: The President has not signed the Hahnemann bill. (Signed) H. M. THURBER, Private Secretary. It need hardly be said that the failure of the President to sign the Joint Resolution, proposing to make a magnificent gift to the people of the United States for the adornment of the National Capital, and in honor of a great scientist, inflicted on the Committee a great and unexpected disap- pointment, a disappointment shared by the friends of the project throughout the whole country. Noth- ing daunted, however, the Committee put forth re- newed efforts to secure the needed legislation by the Fifty-fifth Congress. Their efforts were emi- nently successful. The Joint Resolution after be- ing amended by inserting after the word “Colum- bia” the words “other than the Capitol or Library grounds,” and naming as a commission to select a site the “Chief of Engineers U. S. Army, the Chair- man of the Joint Committee on Library of Congress, and the Chairman of the Monument Committee,” was passed by Congress, and received the signature of President McKinley. 26 Origin and History Within twenty-four hours of the passage of the Joint Resolution, it was signed by the President, who thereupon presented the pen with which it was signed to Dr. McClelland, by whom it is most highly prized. . In order to secure this necessary legislation, the Committee was obliged to perform enormous labor in the way of correspondence with leading physi- cians all over the country, and more directly with members of Congress in order to correct wrong im- pressions and put the matter clearly and rightly before them. This arduous labor devolved almost entirely upon the Secretary of the Committee, the late Dr. Henry M. Smith, who most intelligently and faithfully carried on the immense correspond- ence which this involved. The necessary legislation having been thus ob- tained, the important question of a suitable site was now uppermost. The Act of Congress constituted as a Commission for the selection of a site for the Monument Brigadier-General John M. Wilson, U. S. A., Chief of Engineers, Honorable George Peabody Wetmore, Senator from Rhode Island, Chairman of the Joint Committee on Library of Congress, and Dr. J. H. McClelland, Chairman of the Monument Committee of the American Institute. Immediately upon the creation of this Commission General Wilson caused plans to be made of the va- rious Government reservations and a meeting was soon after held at which these were carefully con- sidered. With a soldier's directness, the Chief of Engi- OFFICERS OF THE INSTITUTE, rooo. T. FRANKLIN SMITH, M.D. E. M. KELLogg, M.D. CHARLEs E. WALtox, M.D., President. Wilson A. SMITH, M. D. E. H. Porter, M.D. 27 Origin and History 29 neers pointed out what, in his opinion, was the most suitable site in Washington for such a monu- ment, namely, Scott Circle. This opinion was at once concurred in by the Chairman of the Monu- ment Committee, and subsequently by the Senator from Rhode Island, and thus was secured after many vexatious delays a place in the Nation's Capital altogether worthy of the noble memorial erected to the honor of Hahnemann. Scott Circle is perhaps the most desirable site in Washington City for such a work, situated as it is at the intersection of Massachusetts and Rhode Island Avenues, where these cross Sixteenth Street, which is on the direct line from the White House. The site originally discussed was a small plot on the Congressional Library grounds, and was sug- gested by General Casey and his associates in charge of the Library building, they having seen a model of the monument on exhibition in New York. Happily, circumstances prevented the choice of this site, and the present one, in every way more suitable, was chosen. It is worthy of honorable mention that women, not a few, animated by a zeal and self-sacrifice which have always characterized them as the warm and devoted friends of a noble cause, entered with enthusiasm in the praiseworthy work of raising funds and co-operating with the Committee in hastening the completion of the Monument. Hence in a supplemental report of the Committee in 1897, it was stated that during the sessions of the Insti- tute a meeting of the Meissen Society was held 3O Origin and History under the direction of Miss Emily F. Paine, when it pledged itself to raise a considerable sum of money in aid of the fund. Another auxiliary was formed for the same purpose by Mrs. Dr. Joseph T. Cook of Buffalo, entitled the “Ladies' Monument Association,” which, after infinite labor, added some $2300 to the Monument fund. But without in- vidious distinction, too much praise cannot be given to Dr. Nancy T. Williams, of Augusta, Maine, who, at the same meeting of the Institute, begged the Žºržviſege of adding one thousand dollars to her previous subscription, modestly revealing the fact that the contribution was from her own earnings in putting into practice the teachings of Hahnemann, and was her way of practically showing her grati- tude. The full amount of the contributions of this noble woman was more than four thousand dollars, constituting her the largest individual contributor. Any enterprise numbering among its promoters such examples of heroic devotion, could not pos- sibly fail of success. At the meeting of the Institute in Atlantic City, 1899, it became plain that a final effort must be put forth to finish and dedicate the monument. To aid in this grand rally, it was deemed advisable to bring to the assistance of the Monument Com- mittee a special Committee on Finance. Dr. George S. Shelton was made Chairman, and at Once set about organizing sub-committees in various States. Much enthusiasm was aroused as a result of this effort and the personal appeals of the Chair- man. The various State Committees went to work Dr. NANcy T. WILLIAMs. Mrs. Dr. I. T. TALBor. Mrs. Dr. Jos. T. Cook. 3r Miss EMILY PAINE. Origin and History 33 with a will, even where our school was but sparsely represented — as in the southern district, where the veteran representative of Homoeopathy, Dr. F. H. Orme, of Atlanta, did splendid work, both in securing subscriptions and enlisting the interest of members of Congress. A notable gathering was that held in Washing- ton to determine the place of meeting of the Insti- tute in 1900, dependent upon the ability of the Committee to guarantee that the Monument would be finished and ready for dedication. The officers of the Institute, including President Charles E. Walton, M.D., of Cincinnati; General Secretary Eugene H. Porter, M. D., of New York; Record- ing Secretary Wilson Smith, M. D., of Chicago; Dr. George S. Shelton of New York, Chairman of the Finance Committee, and Doctors McClelland, Custis and Smith of the Monument Committee, came together for conference. To the demand of the Executive Committee of the Institute, the Monument Committee gave its guarantee, and this settled the place of meeting, Washington, and the time of dedication, June 21, 1900. From this time onward the hearts of the Com- mittee were made glad by the frequently received contributions, and during the session of the Insti- tute held in the City of Washington it was an- nounced that the whole amount necessary for the erection of the Monument had been secured, and that it would be unveiled and dedicated according to programme. In making this welcome announcement, the 3 - 34 Origin and History Chairman gave the following resumé of facts and incidents which cannot fail of interest to all who became identified with the project, viz: The work of the Committee dates back eight years, that is, to the year 1892, during the sessions of the American Institute of Homoeopathy, held in Washington City. Since that time, its labors have been unceasing, although not all the time availing. The chief concern of the Committee at the beginning was to secure an artistic design that would express to the world what we, as Homoeopathists, would wish to say of the founder of our school. This consumed two or three years, various plans having been tried which failed ; but finally a suit- able design was selected, with the invaluable assistance of the special committee of the National Sculptors Society, which had choice of twenty-four designs. Then the im- portant work of the Committee was to raise the money. Nor was this an easy task, for although the Committee succeeded to a considerable extent, still the amount did not come up to the requirements. The expectation, however, was, that before the close of the present year the money would be forthcoming, and this proved to be a prophecy that was fulfilled. The Committee called to its assistance other helpers throughout the country, together with the efficient co-operation of the Commit- tee on Finance, which enables it at this time to report that the whole amount of money required has been prac- tically raised. The labors of the Committee, although at times arduous, have been cheerfully pursued, encouraged from the beginning that they would be finally rewarded with success. There was work and plenty of it con- nected with the securing of legislation and the selection of a suitable site, but all this is now happily over. Some of the members of our Committee who rendered faithful service did not live to see their labors brought to Miss KATHERINE Custis. Miss SARAH C. McCLELLAND. Miss RAchel P. McCLELLAND. 35 Origin and History 37 completion. Talbot is not, and Dake is not, neither Mitchell, although they were three men upon whom we depended for counsel, advice and assistance. Four of us are left to see the completion of the work begun eight years ago. Remarks were made also by Drs. Custis, H. M. Smith, Helmuth and Shelton, speaking in ap- preciative terms of the warm sympathy and liberal contributions of the members of the Institute, various auxiliary associations and friends of Homoeopathy in all parts of the country, each one paying a graceful tribute to the character and magnifying the achievements of Hahnemann, and expressing their gratification that in this country and in our National Capital a Monument worthy of his name was soon to be dedicated. DESCRIPTION OF THE MONUMENT Taken from the description prepared by the Sculptor, Mr. C. H. Niehaus, and the Architect, Mr. Julius F. Harder. GENERAL DESCRIPTION. The Monument is a true ellipse in plan, its fun- damental motive being the Greek exedra form. It is approached from the front by four steps lead- ing to a platform upon the minor axis, and at the back of which rises the superstructure. The central portion, before which is placed a sitting statue of Hahnemann, is composed of four columns carrying an entablature; above this rises an attica bearing the principal inscription. Between the two front columns, and forming the background for the statue, is a niche, again elliptical in plan, and terminating in a semicircular arch above the impost. This impost line continuing to the right and left forms the vertical termination of the flanking walls, which end at the extremities of the major axis of the plan. The base courses of these curved flanking walls form seats occupy- ing the space between the central portion and the end terminations. 38 J. F. HARDER Architect. C. H. Niehaus, Sculptor. 39 Description of the Monument 4 I REAR ELEVATION. As the Monument is in an open place ob- servable from all sides, it was sought to make it attractive from every point of view, and much at- tention was devoted to the design of the back. The main lines of the central portion repeat them- selves here, excepting that the niche is omitted and becomes instead a flat curtain wall with dec- orated tympanum above the impost. These to- gether with the projecting lines form architectural vertical divisions of this elevation, which is thus resolved architecturally into component parts, re- Sulting in a well-proportioned and equally balanced composition. DECORATIONS. Rising from the platform in front of the central portion is a simple pedestal supporting the statue upon the face of which appears the inscription “SIMILIA SIMILIBUS CURENTUR.” Other inscrip- tions which appear at the sides and below the bronze entablatures are the following, familiar to all disciples of Hahnemann : “AUDI SAPERE,” “NON INUTILIS VIxI,” “DIE MILDE MACHT IST GROSS,” and “IN OMNIBUS CARITAs.” The upper portion of the niche behind the statue is decorated in glazed mosaic, in colors, with a de- sign composed of the foliage and flower of the cin- chona plant. On either side of the arch are decorative emblems in bas-relief; a bowl and ser- pent — the symbols of wisdom ; and a lamp and 42 Description of the Monument book— typical of knowledge and instruction. The former in association with a palm branch, the latter with a wreath of laurel. The keystone of the arch bears a lion's head, the symbol of strength and leadership. Upon the rear the date of erection appears across the center in Roman numerals, and the dates of Hahnemann's birth and death—Meissen, April I Ith, 1755; Paris, July 24, 1843—encircled with laurel wreaths, are inscribed to the right and left. In the center, filling the tympanum of the arch appear two figures in bas-relief, emblematic of the science and art of medicine. Underneath this occurs the broad curtain of hammered granite, upon which is recorded the following important inscription : CHRISTIAN FREDERICK SAMUEL HAHNEMANN, DOCTOR IN MEDICINE, HOFRATH. LEADER OF THE GREAT MEDICAL REFORMATION OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY. FOUNDER OF THE HOMOEOPATHIC SCHOOL. Below this inscription is a fountain in the form of a fluted basin fed by a stream of running water issuing from a carved dolphin. STYLE.

STATU ARY. The statue itself, in standard bronze, cast by the Gorham Manufacturing Company, is the culmina- tion of the plan of the Monument. The features have been faithfully copied from the bust by the famous David, who also made the well-known bust of Napoleon I.; but it is designed to convey by their expression, and by the pose of the figure, to the observer, the characteristics of the Philosopher, the Philanthropist, the Teacher. The commemorative tablets are placed in two pan- els, on either side of the niche, upon the curved walls representing in bas-reliefs of standard bronze the four epoch-making periods of Hahnemann's life : the nightly vigils of the student ; the investiga- tions of the chemist; the self-sacrificing experiments of the great discoverer; and finally a fourth (com- posed partly for the sake of symmetry), to com- memorate the brilliant success of his treatment of the typhus patients in the hospitals at Leipsig, mentioned by his biographers. The dates of these episodes—1775–1777, the student years; I 779–1789, the period devoted to chemical study; 1790, the date of his experiments upon himself with Peruvian Bark etc.; and 1813, that of his wonderful cures in Leipsig-are severally inscribed on labels above and below circular discs at each end. These bronzes are also the work of the Gorham Company, 46 Description of the Monument MATERIALS OF CONSTRUCTION. The foundations and superstructure of the Mon- ument are built of fine-grained white granite from the quarries of the Maine and New Hampshire Granite Company, a material admirably calculated to withstand the vicissitudes of time and climate. Not only is the statue sublimely impressive in its de- lineation of the scholar and philosopher, but the setting of the statue is superbly classical. The entablatures in bronze which represent epochs in his life are full of char- acter and vigor. Altogether the American Institute will have the honor of presenting to our country a work of art with which every contributor will be proud to be iden- tified. *>IGI XV-XI a XXIO LVOICIGH CI S.

Scott Circle, the site of the Monument, is one of the many attractive reservations adorning the city, and contains also the statues of Gen. Winfield S. Scott and Daniel Webster, the latest addition to the circle forming a striking combination of one who was famous as a soldier, one who was distinguished as a statesman and one who was eminent as a man of science. 4 49 5O Unveiling and Dedication The occasion attracted a large assemblage of persons, embracing not only members of the med- ical profession, but also many residents of the city and visitors from all parts of the country. On the platform erected at the base of the Monument were the following invited guests : The guest of honor, William McKinley, Presi- dent of the United States, accompanied by his Private Secretary, Mr. George B. Cortelyou, Hon. Henry B. F. Macfarland, President of the District Board of Commissioners, General John M. Wilson, U. S. A., Chief of Engineers, Col. Theo- dore A. Bingham, U. S. A., Superintendent of Public Buildings and Grounds, Attorney-General John W. Griggs, Dr. Charles E. Walton, President of the American Institute of Homoeopathy, Dr. Eugene H. Porter, Secretary of the Institute, Dr. William Tod Helmuth, the poet of the day, Dr. James H. McClelland, Chairman of the Monu- ment Committee, Dr. Henry M. Smith, Treasurer of the Monument Committee, Dr. George G. Shelton, Chairman of the Finance Committee, Dr. J. B. Gregg Custis, Chairman of the Local Committee on Dedication of the Monument, Dr. Nancy T. Williams and Rev. Benjamin F. Bit- tinger, D. D. INTRO DUCTORY REMARKS BY DR. CUSTIS. After appropriate music by the Marine Band, Dr. Custis, in calling the meeting to order, made the following address, viz: （SSCHNICIOTV A^IOJLOQOTONIJLNI S.SI-ISQO “RICT19 |- ， Unveiling and Dedication 53 Fellow citizens and members of the American Institute of Homoeopathy: We are gathered together upon an occasion which in some of its aspects is solemn, in some glorious, in all mo- mentous: Solemn, because we have assumed the responsi- bility of setting as an ideal for those who shall appear upon the world's stage in the twentieth century, a charac- ter. The man to whom this Monument is erected offers an ideal which, if attained by any in the field of science, in the realm of wisdom, in the art of medicine, or in the School which he represented, would justly entitle them to honorable recognition, and secure for them a similar me- morial—a memorial constituting the grandest testimonial ever received by any in the walks of life followed by our confrère, Samuel Hahnemann. Glorious, because it represents a completed work, con- ceived in Washington, nurtured by the American Insti- tute of Homoeopathy, and made possible by the liberality of the adherents and patrons of the School founded by him in whose honor this grand work of art and architec- ture is erected. Momentous, because it places in bold relief the fact that truth, represented simply by a thought, can, in so short a time, in a country whose motive is freedom, reach its highest development; and certainly that has been reached when it can count among its adherents a sufficient number of grateful and admiring followers to erect, in honor of him who gave this thought expression, such a Monument as this, as a proof of their admiration of the faith possessed, the singleness of purpose shown and the success achieved. This Monument is erected in the hope that from it, as a center, truth may be spread which will result in the less- ening of suffering and the increased usefulness of man- kind. 54 Unveiling and Dedication PRAYER BY THE REV. B. F. BITTINGER, D.D. At the conclusion of his address, Dr. Custis in- troduced the Rev. B. F. Bittinger, D.D., who offered the following prayer: O Lord, thou only art great. Before the mountains were brought forth, or even thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God. Thou art infinite in love, almighty in power, supreme in authority, universal in dominion, and sovereign in the army of heaven and among the inhabitants of the earth. Thus recognizing thee as our God, we implore thy presence at this time and invoke thy blessing upon the members of the American Institute of Homoeopathy now convened in this city for the interchange of views, the comparison of methods and the suggestion of remedies and appliances for the preservation of life, the alleviation of pain and amelioration of the many ills to which our suffering humanity is heir. We thank thee for the great progress and the many discoveries and improvements that have been made in the healing art, to which the members of this Institute have devoted their lives. We praise and thank thee especially, that, in thy providence, thou didst raise up Samuel Hahnemann and richly endow him as one of the world's benefactors — revealing to him the principle of similarity between remedy and disease. We also thank thee for the rapid spread and firm establish- ment of this system throughout the world. And now we unveil and dedicate this beautiful monument, erected in honor of his virtues as a man, a scholar, a physician and a benefactor. May it endure to coming generations, and prove a fitting testimonial of admiring and grateful disciples who loyally accept his teachings, and by ap- preciative friends who have been benefited by his system of healing. And to thy name, Father, Son and Holy Ghost, we will give all the praise, Amen. 55 DR. J. H. McCLELLAND'S PRESENTATION SPEECH TO THE INSTITUTE. Unveiling and Dedication 57 PRESENTATION OF THE MONUMENT. Dr. Custis then announced to the assembly that the Monument would be formally presented to the American Institute of Homoeopathy by Dr. James H. McClelland, Chairman of the Committee under whose direction and management it had been brought to its successful completion. Dr. Mc- Clelland spoke in substance as follows: Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen: Representing the Monument Committee of the American Institute of Homoeopathy, it is with sincere delight that I am present on this notable occasion, when in the presence of the President of the United States and other distinguished guests, we dedicate in the language of the act of Congress, “A monument to the honor of Samuel Hahnemann, and for the ornamentation of the National Capital.” Eight years ago at the meeting of the American Institute held in this city, this Committee was regularly constituted and charged with the entirely extra professional duty of se- lecting a plan and securing the funds requisite for the erection of a monument that would be a suitable memorial of the man whom this day we honor, and at the same time be commensurate with the dignity of the body which it is our privilege to represent. It has been a period of arduous endeavor to faithfully perform the varied duties involved in our appointment. It may be interesting to note in view of this occasion that this event was fore-shadowed nearly twenty years ago (in the year 1881) in an address before the Homoeo- pathic Medical Society of Pennsylvania, and I may be pardoned for quoting from that address the following paragraph : “Recently in England, at the largest gather- ing of medical men ever held in this century, there was unveiled with great acclaim a statue to Dr. William 58 Unveiling and Dedication Harvey, who was subjected to the persecution of his medical brethren in consequence of his announced dis- covery of the circulation of the blood. Contemplating the preparations for this event, I could not but feel that, at some time in the not distant future, there will be another such gathering, but the statue unveiled will be that of SAMUEL HAHNEMANN.” I rejoice that we have lived to see this prophecy most gloriously fulfilled. Your Committee, after many fail- ures, finally secured a design, which it feels sure will meet the approval of this assemblage, as well as all those who love the beautiful in art, and which represents a great and noble idea. Of the purest Greek architecture, and a most exquisite design in sculpture, it represents the life-work of a man who was truly great, and through whose method of medical treatment, the sufferings of so many persons have been alleviated and cured. Nor do we assume any- thing in affirming that the death-rate in nearly every dis- ease has been greatly reduced since his day, and chiefly through his discoveries and achievements in the science of medicine. For the conception of this beautiful sculp- ture, we are indebted to an American, Mr. Charles Henry Niehaus, and for the exquisite arcnitectural effects to Mr. Julius F. Harder of New York. I will not detain the distinguished guests present on this occasion with a recital of the labors and struggles of the Committee, now happily coming to a successful close, but will gladly present to the representative of our Insti- tute the result of its labors. Mr. President, I take pleas- ure in transferring to your keeping for the time, this beautiful monument, erected to magnify the achievements and perpetuate the fame of Samuel Hahnemann. UN VEILING OF THE STATUE. At this juncture, the veil covering the statue was drawn aside by Misses Sarah and Rachel ‘‘DNITIGHANO „HO LNGHINOIN GHHJ,69 Unveiling and Dedication 6 I McClelland, daughters of Dr. McClelland, and Miss Katherine Custis, daughter of Dr. Custis, when the figure of Hahnemann, in bronze, was revealed in its imposing majesty, and when, amid the inspirit- ing strains of the Marine Band playing “America,” President McKinley and the other distinguished guests rose to their feet, and with demonstrations of delight saluted the beautiful work of art that appeared to their admiring gaze. ODE BY T)R. HELMUTH. When the excitement had subsided, Dr. William Tod Helmuth of New York, the poet of the occa- sion, was introduced, who, in a prelude, informed the company that the poem which he would deliver contained references to the great discoveries made in the nineteenth century, and also a tribute to the memory of Hahnemann. The poem is as follows:– ODE TO HAHNEMANN. I. Oft times in far off regions of the north, When Autumn's glories all the woods disclose, The sinking sun its golden rays pours forth, Till all the scene in quivering splendor glows. Then snow-capped peaks grow rosy in the light, And sapphire clouds are touched with points of fire, Which, sinking slowly in the arms of night, Watch, ling'ring still to see the day expire. 62 Unveiling and Dedication II. And so the century in grandeur dies, Reflecting splendor on her closing years, Where genius-born her myriad conquests rise 'Midst hopes triumphant and 'mid seas of tears. Arise, O Man, and let thy heart rejoice, That thou wert born in these prolific times, When science teaches with prophetic voice And art in majesty her place defines. III. Amid the ashes of defeated hopes, Amid the wreckage of a thousand lives, That strew the pathways on Ambition's slopes, The mighty genius of man survives; And Fame, fair goddess in her proud array, With golden trumpet pointing to the sky, Sounds thro' the arch of Time her grandest lay, The works of men whose names can never die.

By Darwin's thought the problem of our lives, So long unsolved, this century proclaims In one great song “The fittest still survives.” “Natural selection forever reigns.” And hark along Time's avenue there peals Resounding anthem through the trump of fame, As Herbert Spencer to the world reveals The science that hath glorified his name. Now Evolution stretcheth forth her arm To hold “ the fittest " that the Earth contains; The cold agnostic shudders in alarm ; God still is God — omnipotence remains. "CHOIO S.H.L0INTIGH H ^^HOI£9 Unveiling and Dedication 65 V. Five decades back our 'scutcheon, with its stars And stripes in glory waving to the sky, Was tarnished by the legal right that bars Equality to men, and slavery With all its horror, all its crime and lust, Cast its black shadow o'er this mighty land. Lo! then arose a fearless man and just, And to the Nation issued his command. VI. And lo! the fiends of internecine war Rose like the hideous phantoms of a dream. But slavery was stricken to the core And Abra'm Lincoln's will became supreme. Oh! martyr'd President, thy native land As this great century is dying now, Uplifts in majesty its grateful hand, And lays the wreath immortal on thy brow. VII. The lurid lightning, flashing through the sky, Is caught and held subservient to man's hand, Who ladens it with thought and bids it fly Throughout the farthest confines of the land, O'er mountain heights, across the ocean's waste, Past arid plains or through the trackless snow ; Revolving continents each other know. VIII. The undulations of the summer breeze An interchange of thought convey, The force of tides that swell the boundless seas, Man's subtle intellect controls to-day. 66 Unveiling and Dedication The planets whirling in the abyss of space, The rocks that tell us when this earth grew cold, The glacier's age, antiquity of race, The science of this century unfold. IX. And Woman, last of God's creative art, (Thou great enigma to the creature man), Where in the rush of progress is thy part, Since first this century her course began. Health, beauty and obedience were then The chiefest characters thy sex displayed, Adored by passion — trifled with by men, Honored and loved, neglected or betrayed. X. Look how she stands, now better understood, The light of progress shining in her eyes In all the glory of true womanhood. As high and holy aspirations rise The arts and sciences stand open now, The great professions beckon her to come To join their ranks,— and still the marriage vow Surrounds with sacredness the ties of home. XI. But we who 'neath the Aesculapian shield Are linked together in one sacred bond, To battle on humanity's broad field For health and life and all that lies beyond, Who, when the pestilence is stalking forth, Slaying its victims with mephitic breath, Like whirlwinds sweeping from the icy north — Draw forth the sword to battle with King Death. Unveiling and Dedication 67 XII. What has the closing century revealed, To aid our efforts in th' unequaled strife, The constant battle with a cause concealed That saps the very fountain heads of life. What has it done P Let Anaesthesia sing, Let Antisepsis clap her cleansèd hands, And microscopic revelations ring With songs of progress from far distant lands. XIII. God sent no suff'ring to the pristine man Till Adam ate of the forbidden tree, Then with a laugh the demon Pain began To tear the tendrils of humanity. The centuries rolled on, and still the race Was born and tortured by unceasing pain, Mankind forever striving to efface Its ravages with antidotes in vain. XIV. Then came a time — O country mine, be proud, For thou wert first the conqueror to find Before whose breath the Evil Spirit bowed – Amid the thankful plaudits of mankind The Surgeon now God’s in most temple sees, While Anaesthesia her censer swings, The Demon conquered from his victim flees And Science jubilant her paean sings. XV. To us, Sectarians as we ever are (As all must be who hold a special creed), Arose within this century a star, To guide us in our therapeutic need. 68 Unveiling and Dedication The storm of opposition touched it not, The shafts of ridicule pass'd harmless by, Traditions — dogmas could obscure no jot Of its transcendent truth and purity. XVI. While Anaesthesia in glory stands, And Antisepsis o'er the world displays The grand results minute technique demands, To bless the Surgery of later days, Above them both with more expansive reach, The Star of Truth, by Meissen's sage defined, Shines o'er the earth, humanity to teach The splendid triumphs of the master's mind. XVII. No mighty truth since Time his course began Has shown its full effulgence to the world Till it has fought the stubborn will of man By passion's vehemence against it hurled. Kepler and Newton, Harvey, Jenner, knew And felt the obloquies of error born, And Christ himself, the perfect man and true, Was crucified amid the cries of scorn. XVIII. Great is the hero, whose stupendous mind Upon this dying age its splendor throws Self-vanquished in his efforts for mankind, By all the ardor perfect love bestows. If statesmen, poets, scientists, and men Who deal in life's affairs, could later see Their works as written by historic pen They'd stand confounded by Time's alchemy. Unveiling and Dedication 69 XIX. Could Samuel Hahnemann arise to-day To gaze bewildered on this earnest throng, To view this ceremonial display, Perhaps to listen to this humble song, Could he this monumental bronze behold, Reared to himself, and graven with his name; Could he by some mysterious voice be told His name was writ upon the scroll of fame, With streaming eyes — lost in profound amaze, But modest still — the porcelain painter's son Would prostrate fall in gratitude and praise For this fruition of love's labor won. XX. Look down, O spirit, from thine unknown sphere, Behold the days of persecution past; See this assemblage of thy followers here Proclaim the triumph of the truth at last. Behold the once torn waters of the sea Of Therapeutics breaking on the rocks Of doubt and error and uncertainty, Tearing the life-boat with incessant shocks — Now, guided by Precision's better chart, On it the Mariner shall safely steer, And, taught by thee, with thankfulness of heart Shall watch the beacon and dispel his fear. XXI. Among the benefactors of thy race, Who stamp their impress on the fleeting years That grow to centuries, shall be thy place Of honor, ceded by thy willing peers. Among the epoch-making men whose thought Illuminates the world, there shalt thou stand, 7o Unveiling and Dedication Thy battle for humanity well fought, Bearing thy mottoed banner in thy hand; Then shall the sons of Aesculapius bring Their votive offerings of thanks to thee, And all the nations of the earth shall sing The grand Te Deum — Homoeopathyl PRESENTATION OF THE MONUMENT TO THE GOVERNMENT. At the conclusion of the poem, Dr. Walton, Presi- dent of the Institute, formally presented the monu- ment to the Government of the United States. His address was as follows: For many years the American Institute of Homoe- opathy, the oldest National Medical Society in America, and representing the Homoeopathic School of Medicine, has been striving, through its Monument Committee, to secure the erection, in a suitable location, of a fitting testimonial to the worth of our illustrious founder. The result of their gigantic efforts is before us. Theirs has been a work of love, and nobly have they performed it. Nor time, nor labor has been spared, and behold, “The end crowns the work.” In accepting this work of art, the Institute would joy- ously acknowledge the debt of gratitude to this faithful committee, as also to its efficient co-workers during the last year, the Finance Committee. Their joint labors make it possible in this memorable year 1900, which marks, on the dial of time, the dividing point of centuries, to rear, in our Nation's Capital this magnificent monument com- memorating at once the genius of Samuel Hahnemann and the loyalty of his followers. Upon this pedestal sits the figure of one who loved his fellow-men. Could the spirit of the departed one reanimate this lifeless form, *GIONVLOEIGHOOV SANOJLTVAA JLN GIOTISCH?HafIA, ſ º^^ ^-] Somerville, W. H., M.D., Philadelphia, Pa. . . . . .
