George A. Spalding

Though Dr. George Atherton Spalding had been a member of The Century hardly more than a year, he had here a large circle of appreciative friends. Born in 1848 [sic: 1849], of New England ancestry—many distinguished in medicine,—he was a graduate of Andover, of Yale University, and of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, and became an assistant in that institution to Dr. John Dalton, who had the chair of Physiology. For some fifteen years he was an attending physician to the House of Refuge on Randall’s Island where his energy and upright methods proved of high value. In 1896 he was appointed attendant physician at St. Luke’s Hospital, and gave to that institution ten years of active and most useful service.
