Century Memorial
Dr. William Henry Carmalt lived a long and satisfying life. Graduated from the College of Physicians and Surgeons in 1861, lecturer and professor in Yale Medical School during thirty-three successive years, receiving the doctor-of-laws degree from the University at the age of ninety three, he may rightly be said to have served his turn in human endeavor. Not content with his educational responsibilities, Dr. Carmalt maintained a general practice, in his specialty of eye surgery, during more than half a century. Asserting the privileges which belonged to a practitioner born under Andrew Jackson, he scorned such modern innovations as the motor-car, and up to the last made his professional visits at New Haven with a horse and buggy.
