Short Biography of Lynn S. Beals

The principal facts since leaving college as I remember them are: Went to Medical School on Boylston Street for four years, being connected with Randall Hall Dining Association as secretary or auditor during that time. Of course, naturally, I had to eat there; it seemed to me the right thing to do. I then got an appointment at the Massachusetts General Hospital, in the West Medical Service for sixteen months, beginning the middle of my senior medical year. I graduated from both places and came to Albany about January, 1905, and took and passed the New York State Board. I came to Buffalo July 4, 1905, realizing that the fireworks were not in my honor, and July 5, 1905, began the practice of medicine and continued whenever I had the chance. I don’t think I have ever really killed anybody—and trust that I have done some good. Member: New York State Medical Society, Erie Co., N. Y., Medical Union of Buffalo, N. Y.; President of Roswell Park Medical Club, Buffalo, N. Y.
