-
E. S. Cooper, "Editorial: 'Dr. E. S. Cooper, of San Francisco, and his Left-handed Friend'," San Francisco Medical Press 1, no. 4 (Oct 1860): 247-249.
There are two points to be made about Cooper's rendering of the title and source
of this reference. First, the title of the editorial in the Cincinnati Lancet and Observer refers to Dr.
Cooper's "Left-Handed Friends," whereas In his editorial on the subject, Dr.
Cooper refers to his "Left-hand Friend," meaning Wooster, of course. Second, Dr.
Cooper states that the editorial was printed in the Cleveland Medical Gazette, whereas it was actually published in
the Cincinnati Lancet and Observer. In
transcribing Cooper's editorial, we have corrected this error.
