Title | Morgan, John: certificate of election to the Royal Society |
Citation | We whose names are underwritten from our Acquaintance with him, his good Character & Abilities, beg leave to recommend to the Royal Society of London, John Morgan of Philadelphia, MD as a person duly qualified to be received as a Member into this Society. He is acquainted with several Branches of Philosophical and polite Literature, & particularly is a zealous Inquirer into Anatomical & Physiological Subjects. He is well known, as well personally as by his Writings, to many of the Celebrated Authors both in Italy & France, who by their Discoveries & publications have contributed to an Improvement of these Sciences. He has been made a Correspondent Member of the Royal Academy of Surgery at Paris for his Qualifications in Anatomy, Nor is his Acquaintance with the above mentioned Subjects unknown to several persons of the most distinguished Character in those Branches of Medical Knowledge in this City. These Considerations we hope will entitle him to the honour he aspires at, of being inrolled amongst the worthy Members of this Illustrious Body, which their suffrages will inspire him with the highest Ambition to merit. |
