Not here, but many memories of Dr. Mellon in the hospital he built in the Artibonite Valley from his family inheritance. He went to medical school when he was forty six years of age---normally would not be admitted, but was because his family financed the medical school so heavily. He and his wife were the hospital staff, later joined by American volunteer nurses who stayed for about six months before returning to the U.S. My Polish partner Hospodar and I sent him two shiploads of medicine via Antillean Steamship Lines after a severe hurricane.
