Emmet Rixford, "Early history of medical education in California," Annals of Surgery 88, no. 3 (Sep 1928): 323.
In this paper, Rixford describes an
episode said by him to have occurred at a meeting of the San Francisco
Pathological Society during which the Society President criticised Cooper
severely for advertising. "Cooper who was present then strode to the chair,
shook his fist in the President's face and threatened to thrash him if he
uttered another word against him. Dr. A. J. Bowie, a scholar and polished
gentleman, a southerner who believed in the code, did his best to arrange a
duel, offering the President his services as a second so that the insult might
be wiped out, but the President's valor oozed out in the drink emporium nearby,
whereupon Dr. Bowie changed sides and became a fast friend of Doctor Cooper. Not
long after Cooper started his medical school Bowie became Professor of Clinical
Medicine.
