I have received a question from another physician regarding an address
made by Twain to the Illinois State Medical Society late in the 19th
century. This speech was cited by George Will when he himself spoke to
the Illinois State Medical Society about 100 years later. Mr. Will has
not responded to the questioner's request to provide a citation for the
speech, and the historian of the Illinois State Medical Society cannot
find a record of the ancient speech. Does anyone have any knowledge
about such a speech?
