of Pennsylvania
Special to The Telegraph
Philadelphia, Jan. 5. Dr. S. Weir
Mitchell Is dead. The end came at 3
o'clock yesterday morning at his home,
1524 Walnut street. Influenza was the
direct cause of death, though old age
had a contributing influence.

physician became 111, si* days ago, It
was generally thought that he would
not recover. On Thursday a slight Im
provement was noted In his condition,
out the mending did not continue.

Rose to Height* In Tw» Calling"
His death removes one of the most
versatile figures of all time, a man who
rose to the heights in two entirely
disassociated callings, literature and
medicine. Critics everywhere have
agreed that he was one of the most
notable writers of the age, and It is as
a writer that he was best known, but
yet his place in medical ranks was even
higher than In literature. He was con
sidered by many the worlds leading
nerve specialist.
Dr. Mitchell's life paralleled In many
ways the life of Oliver Wendell Holmes.
Both men were physicians, and both
were writers. No one disputed that Dr.
Mitchell was the much better phy
sician, and not a few inclined to tht.
belief that he was the better writer.
Holmes was a fast friend of Dr.
Mitchell, and the first work in writing
Dr Mitchell ever did, he submitted to
Holmes for an opinion. He then was
27 years old. The work consisted of a
book of verses. The advice he got was
to lay them on the shelf at least ten
years, nn<l If he Intended to keep on
writing to quit the practice of medi
cine.
Among his more prominent literary
works ure: "Francois Vlllun," "Charac
teristics," "Francis Drake," "A Ma
deira Partj\" "Dr. North and His
Friends, "The Autobiography of a
" The Wager" (a masque), and
The Red City." His medical w»rk has
been largely on the subject of nervous
diseases; soma or the titles are: "Clini
cal Wessons on Nervous Disease," "Rest
Treatment and Psychic Medicine,"
"Wear stid Tear." "The Involution of
the Rest Treatment," and "Doctor and
Patient."
