Day in the Life
Journal Entry
June 26, 1841 ~ Saturday
26th I re^a^d the narative of the life and medical
Discoveries of Dr SAMUEL THOMPSON which
were truly interesting & beneficial to mankind I
have no doubt but that his invention theory & pra-
ctice of administering roots barks & herbs as
medicine, is a great blessing to mankind & is one of
the greatest improvments of the last days & is
causing a great revolution throughout America in
the mode of practice, by which means he has drawn
down a flood of persecution & slander upon his head
I copied Dr Thomsons instructions on preparing medicine & administering it
