Abstract
WE learn from the British Medical Journal that Dr. Harris Graham died at Beirut, Syria, on February 27. Dr. Graham, who was in his sixtieth year, was of Canadian birth and was educated at Toronto and Michigan Universities. Going to Turkey as a missionary he served four years at Aintab Medical College. On its closure, he was called to Beirut and joined the American University there in 1889. During various leaves of absence he worked in Berlin and Vienna, and advanced evidence that a Culex mosquito is the carrier of dengue fever. He had an extensive practice and spoke all the principal languages of the Levant. Dr. Graham will be much missed, for he was an energetic and inspiring teacher and a physician of great acumen.
