STANFORD EMERSON CHAILLE. Stanford Emerson Chaille was born July 9, 1830, in Natchez, Mississippi; the son of William Hamilton and Mary (Sanford) Chaille. Among his ancestors were many who gained fame in the early Colonial and in Revolutionary times. His early education was completed at Phillips Academy, South Andover, Massachusetts, in J 847. He has received the degrees of A.B. and A.M. from Harvard, of M.D. and LL.D. from Tulane. During 1 860-6 J, and again during 1866-67, Dr. Chaille was a student in Paris; on the first occasion in the laboratory of Qaude Bernard, the famous physiologist. At the opening of the Civil War, Dr. Chaille enlisted as a private in the New Orleans Light Horse. His ability was soon recognized, however, and promotion followed steadily, until, at the time of his capture in J 865, he was Surgeon-in-chief of the Ocmulgee Hospital, Macon, Georgia. The United States Government and the medical world have long appreciated Dr. Chaille ' s worth. Conclusive evidence of this is found in the number of important positions for which he has been chosen, such as one of the seven civilian members of the National Board of Health, from 1885 to 1893, when it was abolished; and by numerous honors con- ferred upon him by the International Medical Congresses of J 876 and 1887. Dr. Chaille is an honorary member of the College of Physicians, Philadelphia; of the Medical and Chirurgical Faculty of Maryland; of the Academy of Sciences, Havana, Cuba; and of the Louisiana Pharmaceutical Association. The Sons of the American Revolution, and the American Medical Association, are but two of the numerous organizations of which he is an active member. Dr. Chaille ' s connection with the University began as a student in 1 85 1. During 1852-53 he was an interne at the Charity Hospital. In 1858 his connection as teacher, which lasts to the present time, began. In 1885 he was elected Dean of the Medical De- partment, and in 1890 he became Professor of Physiology, Hygiene, and Pathological Anatomy. Numerous medical journals, especially The New Orleans Medical and Surgical Journal, of which he was co-editor and proprietor (1857-68), contain Dr. Chaille ' s many valuable contributions on medical subjects. Dr. Chaille married, February 23, 1857, Kliss Laura E. Mountford, daughter of Lieutenant-Colonel John Mountford, U. S. A. Mary Laura Chaille (wife of Dr. David Jamison, of New Orleans), was their only child. Though he has long since retired from active practice, all medical matters have for him a vital interest. And while enjoying the fruits of his well-spent life, he holds the re- spect and honor both of those of his profession and of all others.
