The June issue of The Physican and Surgeon contains the following article that will be of interest to the people of Anu Arbor, and one in which said people will certainly join with hearty amens {is well as with their dollars : Doctor C. E. Stroud, of Sandusky, Ohio, has written urging that we advocate the erection of a bronze statue of Professor Ford, America's greatest anatoniist, to be placed upon the campus at Ann Arbor. Doctor Stroud adds : "There is not a physician or dentist who heard this great teacher lecture, hut that would consider it a great pleasure to contribute his mite - say one dollar - towards the erection." There islittledoubtthut while the way of the monument builder is often hard Ford's name would be found a talisman with which to secure funds, and a statue to Ford could probably be erected before that of Benjamin Rush adorns the grounds of the CapĂ­tol in spite of thirteen years start by the latter project. Doctor Ford's name is one that certainly should be remembered in some permanent way. The Physican and Surgeon will gladly Icnd its aid in securing so desirable a project to the attentiou of the public, and will assist a committee in the promotion of the work.
