AN EXPOSURE OF THE CONDUCT OF THE TRUSTEES AND PROFESSORS OF THE MEDICAL COLLEGE OF OHIO, AND OF THE HOSPITAL OR TOWNSHIP TRUSTEES, IN RELATION TO JOHN F. HENRY, M.D.

Cincinnati: Wood & Stratton, 1833. 20, [1 Appendix], [1 Note], [2 blank] pp. Original printed wrappers [dusted, moderate wear, old ownership signature in ink]. Stitched, untrimmed. Moderately foxed, some corner dirt and light wear. About Good+.

This copy belonged to Dr. Moorhead of the Obstetrics Department, listed here as a faculty member. His signature appears on the front wrapper. The Trustees of the Medical College "expelled" Henry from his professorship. Their actions, charging "incompetence" and thus damaging his reputation, constituted a "declaration of war against me...They have driven me from my repose by goading me with their taunts and their revilings." Henry exposes the bitter political struggles at the College, to the detriment of one and all.
