Letter from Jefferson Randolph Kean to Philip Showalter Hench,  November 25, 1941

 Item — Box: 63, Folder: 7
Identifier: 06307083

Scope and Contents

Kean is excited about the discovery of the notebook at the New York Academy of Medicine. He was immune to yellow fever - after having it in June of 1900 - so was not bitten as part of Lazear's experiments. He is pleased with the memoir of Andrus, and lauds him for submitting to inoculation as Reed had determined to inoculate himself if Andrus had not volunteered.
