A Good Appointment
Last January the board of control of the Michigan state asylums created the office of special pathologist, to whom all material will be sent for examination. The board consists of the superintendents of the four asylums, at Pontiac, Kalamazoo, Traverse City and Newberry. They appointed to the office of special pathologist Dr. Theophile Klingmann, assistant to Dr. Herdman. Or. Klingmann is the son of the late Rev. Stephan Klingmann, of Weinsberg, and brother of Rev. Julius Klingmann. He is peculiarly fitted for his position, having had a large general practice in Bay City, from where he went to Berlin and Leipsic, Germany, where for two years he studied nervous diseases in the large hospital in those cities. He does all the post mortem work for the three asylums in the lower peninsula. The Newberry asylum is so far distant that a doctor attends to the immediate work here, being, however, under the instructions of Dr. Klingmann. The next meeting of the board of control will he held in November. At this meeting the superintendent of the asylum for criminal insane at Ionia, will also be present, he having come into the board during August last. -------- Manchester Enterprise
