HISTORY OF HOMEOPATHY
IN
MONTREAL.
The first records of Homeopathy in this city are contained in Dr.
Wanless's clever pamphlet pnhhslied in 18(54, givinfj; the substance ot a
series of letters ajjtainst Homeopathy and his own replies to the same,
as they appeared in the Montreal Transcript of that time.
In it he mentions Dr. Roseiistein as one of our first Homeopaths,
and details the treatment he received while trying to conduct an ex-
perimental case in the Montreal <veneral Hospital. Contemporary or
even before, came Dr. Arthur Fisher, at one time a Lecturer in McGill
University, and to day one of the oldest active Homeopathic practitioners
in the world.
Since these dates, and at varying periods, appear the names of Dr.
Barber, Dr. Utlev, Dr. Peterson. Dr. Smith, Dr. Muller, Dr. Wanless,
Dr. Fulton, Dr. thos. Nichol, Dr. Jolin R. Wanleis, Dr. D. C. McLaren,
Dr. W. G. Nichol, Dr. T. Sct,tt Nichol, Dr. H. M. Patton and Dr. A. R.
Grilhth. Death and removal from the city have left but six of these
pioneers of Homeopathy, but ere the year is done, the fame of our
Hospital promises to nearly doiihle the number.
On the 28th of June. LS()3, Messrs. McGinn, Grafton, Baylis,
Mathewson, Muir, Fleck, E. L. Ransom, D. A. Ansell and MiCready,
met in the Mechanics Hall, and made the first attempt to organize
Homeopathy in Montreal.
A Dispensary was established, which from causes which the records
do not show, ceased after two years of apparent prosperity. New names
appear from timetotime : among tliem Hon. Jas. Ferrier, G. A. Holland,
Hon. L. S. Huntington, (jeo. Washintrton Stephens, .tames Stewart,
J. S. McLachlan, Chas. Alexander, D. Drysdale, E. Lusher and Henry
Lyman.
The Charter obtained in !^Larch 18th, 1865, and amended on
September 14th, 18H5, and on March 30th, 188.'?, granted full powers to
the Montreal Homeopathic Association to establish a Disiier.sary, College
and Hospital, and also the important office of examining and licensing
Homeopathic practitioners. — .
From 1883, until 1893, no meetings of the IIome;)pathic Association \
were held, except in so far as the Charter called for. On January 2fith,
1893, a new lease of life came, and from that date on, the history of the
Association has been one of startling and brilliant achievement and
constantly widening power.
In March the petition to the Governors of the Royal Victoria
Hospital, asking for a Homeopathic Ward, was started, and within two
months thirteen feet of names of prominient citizens favoring
Homeopathy were obtained.
On May I8th, 1803, a deputation consisting of Dr. Wanless, Rev. Dr. ^
Barbour, Rev. Dr. Rose, Dr. H. M. Patton and Messrs. Samuel Bell, Jas.
Baylis, John Torrance, Jas. A. Gillespie, Jas. Ferrier, F. E. Grafton,
Chas. Aliixunder and E. G. O'Connor met the Governors of the Royal
Victoria Hospital in the Board Roo'n of the Bink of Montreal and
presentel the petition. It was courteously received, and compliance
therewith promise 1, if possible. On January 5th, 1894, a formal reply was
received, stating that the petition could not be granted. On Nov-
ember l.Sth, 1893, a similar request to the Montreal General Hospital,
ill.
2
was also refused. While these nejjrotiations were in prop;re88, a letter had
been received by the Boar.l offerinir on behalf of ii hidy friend the snni
of $10.(UiO towards piirchasinir an Hospital for Iloinoopathy. The con-
dition was a 'guarantee of a lifo annuity of ft)ur pt'r cont. The lioanl
accepted thosc! iiini-c than generous terms, and alter due consideration
the proptM'ty No. 44 Mc(iill (\>lle;ie Avoinie, consistinj; (»f a four storey
brick buildinji, and ;'>:'.(»() square feet of land, was purchased for the sum
of $80o0. Ill February the i)roperty became absolutely vested in the
A.ssociation, and in .Inly ISiU, the Deed of Trust was si-^ued for the
Associatiou by Mr. (has. Mexa" ler. the President, and I<r. H. M. Patton,
the Secretary.
On February 2Sth, ISW4, the Woman's Auxiliary was organized,
and has lar^rely i-ontributed to the success of the llo.^pital. On
April 2.>rd, lS94, the Association met and elettted the (dlicers of the
Hospital, the Life (Jovernors. and twenty F'lective Oovernors, besides
passim; necessary r>y-!/aws for the conducting of the Hospital. Messrs.
F. E.Grafton and W. II. Stanley were elected Hom^rary Life Governors.
At 8ubse(iueut meetlnjjs of the Hoard of Mana.:ement, the <piestion
of l)nil liuix a win;z was (liscussoil, and it was liiially decid(vl as the
policy of the Hospital, that no evpenditure should be incnrrcvl until the
funds to meet it wert» in the Treasury.
Duriu'^' the summer of l.Si)4. the llepairs Committee, with ener^ry
and excellent taste, transformed the ol 1 residenc*; into one of the
most attractive and complete of small Hospitals. Nothiii'^ was omitted
to niak(i it efficient and capal>le of doin^r ^^ood work for Homeopathy.
The Ladies Committee supplied the H()Sj)ital with all necessary
furn shin;is. .\u (Mli -ient Lady Superintendent and Stalf of Nurses
havin;; been secured, also the appointnuMit of a Sur«ieon and Physicians
haviuit been made; on (October 'Jnd, istM, the Hospital was ready for
the formal opening. On that date, the Lord Hishoj) of Montreal, and
other representative (derirymen conducted an imposiu'i inauiiural
ceremony in the preaeuce of a larj/e number of prominent citizens.
Thus was launched into benevolent activity, the first Homeopathic
Hospital in the Province of (Quebec. Since that date thirty-five i)atienit.s
have occupied its beds, and the results have more than justified the
Hospital's exist Mice. Too much praise cannot be ^iven to the Women
of .Montreal Homeopathy. To their <.'ood sense and enerjjjetic support
this rational System of .Medicine owes its rapid pro<;ress here.
On Deceml'cr ;'>rd, Is'.U, the .\ssociation at its \nnual Meeting?
jjassed the P>y-Laws of the Hospitil, and <.)f (he ('olle.;e<»f Homeop.ithic
I'hysicians and Surgeons.
