Excerpt from A Typical American: Or Incidents in the Life of Dr. John Swinburne, of Albany, the Eminent Patriot, Surgeon, and Philanthropist In presenting this sketch of the life of one of the most remarkable men of the period, - one in whom the people of Albany take the deepest interest; who is esteemed by all classes, particularly by the men who were found at the front during the Rebellion; and who, by his many kind acts to the poor, has endeared himself to them beyond all other men, - the citizens have no further apology than a desire to have the people at large know him as they know him. To him is given the strange title of "The Fighting Doctor," because of his many contests with error in every walk of life. These conflicts have all been in the interests of the people, - as a volunteer during the Rebellion; in professional struggles to overcome malpractice and deformity in treating the sick and maimed; and in private and political life to secure better government, and overcome corrupt political cabals. Aggressive yet tender and kind, lie possesses all the characteristics of a true man, combined with a skill that places him at the head of his profession; self-made, he thoroughly understands the wants of the people; and possessed of a spirit of fearless independence, he has been by nature and circumstances well fitted to espouse the cause of the people at large without distinction of class.
