The cheerful and attentive countenance of Dr. George E. Munroe always looked on the proceedings of a Century Club meeting from the front row of the assemblage. He had been a member of the Club for thirty-seven years, and had practiced medicine in New York from 1877 until his retirement from professional duties, several years ago.
