Atlanta Medical college.
\t the late commencement of the At-
honor man.
u„ta Medical College forty-eight young
* Semen received the degree of M. D.
ft the bands of Bov. D. W. Gwin, D. D.,
“ l l0 performed that duty by request,
owing to the illness of Chief Justice
James Jackson, to whom it had been as
signed on the programme.
After receiving their diplomas, the
annual address to the class was deliver
ed by Dr. W. H. Felton, of Cartersville.
This effort of tne doctor alone would
place him in the front rank of the ora
tors and scientists of the country. For
one full hour he literally enchained the
attention of the crowded audience which
had well nigh filled DeGive’s Opera
House to its utmost capacity.
It was a masterly defense and vindi
cation of the healing art, and most con
clusively did the speaker show the scope
and power and dignity of this most
useful of the learned professions.
Beginning with Esculapius, Hypo-
crates and other renowned worthies who
loom forth from the dim vistas of an
tiquity, he traveled all adown succeed
ing centuries bringing to the fore the
many great lights which had illuminated
the world and added so much to strug
gling civilization while emerging from
the sombre eclipse of the dark ages.
His tribute to Lord Bacon and his great
work, the novum organum, proved that
the orator was himself a philosopher
and profound thinker, while the appo
site references to Jenner and the great
Physician of Holy Writ, who wrought
so many miraculous cures, were pecul
iarly felicitous. In short no one that
heard Dr. Felton could feel otherwise
than convinced that the medical profes
sion diligently pursued was the greatest
of al« boons to suffering humanity, Not
a scintilla of politics marred the euphony
of his remarks and the frequent applause
<A the listeners testified their sympathy
with the noble utterances of the orator.
The Proctor, Dr. James A. Gray, an
nounced that the valedictorian, Mr.
Kennebrew, had been excused by the
faculty in consequence of his late severe
illness. Of Dr. Kennebrew the Consti
tution says:
‘‘The valedictorian, Dr. Edwin R
Kennebrew, was excused on account of
a lingering illness which had made it
impossible for him to prepare an oration
for the occasion. Dr. H. V. M. Miller
explained the circumstances to the au
dience, stating that Dr. Kennebrew was
°ne of the most distinguished members
of bis class, and expressing the regret
°f the faculty and graduates that the
orator selected for the occasion was
providentially prevented from filling the
place assigned him on the programme.”
Hon. Marshall J. Clarke then delivered
the three prizes to the successful com
u^' t0 . r8 as follows: The first to Dr. Alva
' • " ‘Ider, of Arkansas; the second to
r. Thomas B. Hollis, of Georgia, and
tbe third to Dr. L. B. V. Woolley, of
Atlanta, Ga.
Phe faculty prizes were delivered as
olows: Dr. W. F. Westmoreland’s to
r. J. A. Panson, Dr. W. A. Love’s to
f r * J - M. Hurst, Dr. V. H. Talliaferro’i

ie re *narks that accompanied the
presentation of these trophies were
