Century Memorial
Dr. William Chittenden Lusk, son and brother of those other old-time Centurions, Dr. William T. Lusk and Dr. Graham Lusk, was for seventeen years professor of clinical surgery at Bellevue. Like those distinguished relatives he won high place in his profession, his own achievement being identified with a famous and quite unprecedented surgical operation.
