Text Appearing Before Image:
His step was quqick and alert. His movements were those of a
man with a purpose. Before his class he had an aplom which,
with his clear diction and mellow voice, commanded instant and
sustained attention. What he taught was instinctively accepted
as the last word on the subject under consideration. He taught
in such terms and by such means and so demonstrated the accuracy
of his teachings by his work in the wards that they who heard
him learned to lean upon him. It thus came about that for
many years he enjoyed a distinct primacy in the Ohio Valley
as an obstetric consultant.
It was the privilege of the writer to have heard Dr. Taylor
as a lecturer, to have had the benefit of his demonstrations as a
clinical teacher, and subsequently for several years to have served
with him as a member of the staff of the Cincinnati Hospital.
In these various capacities and as a colleague in different med-
ical organizations, he always found him not only a man of
learning and a skilful practitioner but cordial, frank, honest
,straightforward—in short, a gentleman.

IN MEMORIAM.

MARCUS ROSENWASSER, M. D.
BY
ROLAND E. SKEEL, M. D.

DR. MARCUS ROSENWASSER died at his home in Cleveland, on
September 4, 1910. He had been a Fellow of this Association
for nineteen years. He was born in Bohemia, October 27, 1846, of
Jewish parents, and came to Cleveland with his parents when
eight years of age. He completed his preliminary education in
the Cleveland public schools and then returned to Bohemia for
his medical education which was begun in the University of
Prague and finished in Wuertzeberg in 1867. After some time
spent in postgraduate study he returned to Cleveland and began
the practice of his profession at first as a general practitioner.
In 1893 he discontinued his general practice and devoted himself
exclusively to gynecology and general consultation work, which
he continued until the time of his death. From the outset he
was preeminently successful for he possessed those qualifications
which made for the highest standards in medicine.
