Going back into Dr. Brown's history, we find that his inclinations are of hered- itary tendency, his father being a doctor. Thus naturally affected, Otto commenced his training at Barnes Medical College, re- maining here but one year and coming to Bennett in his Sophomore year, where he won many friends and has the reputation of being an excellent student.
