Published in "Photography" in the "Harvard Magazine", Volume 1, 1854, p. 15. The anonymous author left us with "L" as to his or her identity.
Every invention that has ever been patented has bid fair to revolutionize some world or other, and every enthusiast places his profession " the foremost in all the world." I then, as an enthusiast in photography, beg leave to follow this same good custom, and to be confident that the time may come when photographs will supersede metaphors, when descriptions will give place to Talbotypes, and when medical reports will be illustrated by Crystallotypes of post-mortems, Calotypes of convalescents, and Heliotypes of amputations.
