Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on the Theory and Practice of Physic, Delivered in the College of Physicians and Surgeons of the University of the State of New York All these were so familiar to him, that they were seldom written. The manuscripts would perhaps contain a memorandum here and there that would remind one who had often heard him, of the many striking and learned illustrations he was in the habit of ad ducing - but could not enable the editor entirely to recover them, or to give them with any thing like tolerable accuracy. And then, the manner could not be represented. The Vivid flashes of his keen eye; his fine, manly, commanding voice; his animation of delivery, rising, as it often did, to enthusiasm; and his graceful, powerful gesticulation - all these are gone.
