Obituary.

IN MEMORIAM.

IN MEMORY OF DR. FRANK HOWARD PAYNE.

The Trustees and Faculties of the College of Physicians and Surgeons recall with deep regret the death, on August 8, 1904, of their friend and Fellow, Dr. Frank Howard Payne, who contracted a mortal disease in the practice of his profession while rendering humane service to the needy poor.

Dr. Payne was born October 30, 1850, at Fremont, Ill., was graduated from Rush Medical College, and practiced his profession in Berkeley, Calif., a quarter of a century, where he served as Health Officer many years.

WHEREAS, Dr. Payne has been Professor of Hygiene and Dietetics in the College of Physicians and Surgeons of San Francisco since 1896, bringing to his chair the wealth of his learning and experience, together with the earnestness and geniality that endeared him to the student, and made him a loved Fellow of the Faculties, be it

Resolved, That we, the Trustees and Faculties of the College of Physicians and Surgeons of San Francisco, extend to Mrs. Payne our heartfelt sympathies in her sad bereavement. We feel the loss deeply. We have lost an able teacher, a staunch friend and supporter. The profession has lost one of its most loyal devotees, and the poor, by the death of Dr. Payne, have lost one of their most capable and charitable advisors.

WINSLOW ANDERSON,

President, College of Physicians and Surgeons of San Francisco.

D. A. HODGHEAD,

Secretary and Dean, College of Physicians and Surgeons of San Francisco.
