Title	Daniel Drake Speech on Formation of Professional Character
Subject	Education Science and Technology Medicine
Place	Cincinnati (Ohio) Hamilton County (Ohio)
Description	This is the second draft of a speech written by Daniel Drake on October 28, 1835. It was delivered at the First Session of the Medical Department at Cincinnati College on November 2, 1835. Drake urges the students to be industrious and develop a love of truth and benevolence. Changes are scattered through the text and large portions are crossed out. It is 36 pages long and measures 7.75 x 12.25 inches (19.68 x 31.11 cm). Drake (1785-1852) was born in New Jersey and later migrated with his family to Kentucky. He studied medicine with a Cincinnati physician and attended lectures in Philadelphia. Drake dreamed of starting a medical college in the "west" and returned to Philadelphia for his doctor of medicine degree, which would allow him to serve as a professor. He founded the Cincinnati Medical College and published on a variety of medical related topics. In addition to his medical pursuits, Drake was an active booster for the city of Cincinnati, a director of the Cincinnati branch of the Bank of the United States, and an avid naturalist whose collections served as the basis of the Cincinnati Museum of Natural History.
