June 3, 1799

On June 3, 1799, the original 101 founders of the Medical & Chirurgical Faculty of Maryland met for the first time. 

Although the charter had been signed in January, the first full meeting of the founding members did not take place until June 3 of 1799. Sadly, there are no notes that remain from this meeting in Annapolis, as stated in the Medical Annals of Maryland (1899). 

For many years after this, the summer semi-annual meeting and oration was held on June 3.
