Marion Sims, who recently died in the city of New York, was spoken at a Memorial Meeting of the Medical and Surgical Society of Montgomery, and by that body ordered to be published in the Montgomery Advertiser. It was afterwards reprinted in Gaillard's Medical Journal, January, 1884. At the request of some of the friends and admirers of Dr. Sims it is now published in pamphlet form, with a few additional facts and reflections by the author." Baldwin was one of Sims's oldest and closest friends, having met him when Sims came to Montgomery, Alabama, in 1840.
