S. Davis, who had taken such an acli\e part in imprtjving the health of the city and State, was one of the outstanding figures in the medical profession who refused to accept the germ theory of disease at this tin:e. In the 1884 edition of his lectures on the Principles and Practice of Medicine, he said : "If we adhere impartially to well ascertained facts, we must adtiiit that diphtheria often makes its appearance in families, asylums and schools, as well as at the beginning of epidemics, unde...r such circum- stances that it is imjiossible to trace it to any form of communication with previous cases, either in the same localities or elsewhere. In other words, it is capable of spontaneous development, and consequently does not depend for production and spread upon any specific contagious germs or virus generated in the bodies of the sick. " Such views were hard to dispel in the minds of the older practitioners. With but few exceptions, the germ theory of disease was, however, quite generally accepted in the early nineties.
