Gull argued that by examining the actual physical changes a disease causes within the body\, a physician learns why a patient is sick\, how a disease progresses\, and what it truly is. It represents scientific inquiry\, observation\, and structural knowledge.

SUMMARY:Siege of Wolves
DESCRIPTION:Siege of Wolves\nStep into a Tamworth legend… Come curious. Leave with a story of your own. \n“The wolves are coming!”\nParaphrasing Joseph Gilman’s written account of a Tamworth\, New Hampshire\, event on November 14\, 1830: An alarm spread through Tamworth. “The wolves are coming down from the northern mountains in countless numbers.” A pack of wolves had entered a woodlot on Marston Hill—now Great Hill—threatening settlers and their livestock. Through the night\, townspeople surrounded the woods\, keeping the pack from entering the village. Local women brewed coffee and provided hearty refreshments to those keeping watch\, without which\, according to the historical account\, “their trials and sufferings would have been vastly more severe.” \nBy daylight\, some 600 people had assembled\, from children of ten to a gray-haired veteran of fourscore years. Under the command of General Quimby of neighboring Sandwich\, New Hampshire\, the townspeople advanced upon the woods. What happened next became one of Tamworth’s most memorable tales. \nWe’ll bring the history\, the coffee\, and the story of a night Tamworth never forgot. Join us at the Remick farmstead—the site of Remick’s Hotel (now the Captain Enoch Remick House)\, where General Quimby spoke to the gathered crowds\, declaring victory over the siege—as we step back in time to this extraordinary day and explore the history\, legend\, and lore of the Siege of Wolves and its perceived antagonists. \n\nNOTE: This event explores a local legend from 1830. While the historical text and story include the hunting of wolves\, our goal is to share folklore connected to our site\, not to endorse or glorify practices of the past. Join us to learn more about this gripping legend and discover the complexities of historical fact versus legend. \n\n  \nFEATURE EVENT: A GUIDED EXPEDITION   The event’s self-guided exploration options are listed below.\nHear the story of the siege and discover the animals\, people\, places and traditions behind this enduring Tamworth legend from your costumed guide. \nSiege of Wolves Interactive Expedition\nDeparture times: 10:30 a.m. | Noon | 1:30 p.m.   Preregistration is strongly encouraged.\n \nExpedition includes… \n+ NH Wolf History & Conservation\nLearn about wolves in New Hampshire\, their place in our natural history\, and the conservation story surrounding them today. \n+ Militia History\nGet to know the world of the local militia and discover what life—and a long night on watch—might have been like in 1830. \n+ Camp Coffee\nStay alert and keep your endurance up with a sipping sample of steaming Siege of Wolves coffee\, brewed using local homestead-roasted coffee from Sandwich Coffee Roasters (available during the tour only). Bagged coffee is available for purchase while supplies last. \n+ “Victory!” Celebrate the End of the Siege\nGather at “Remick’s Hotel” to hear about General Quimby’s address to the crowd following the siege. And what better way to celebrate victory than with a little noise?! Legend has it that cheers rang out “in thunder tones” as General Quimby addressed the crowd from atop his carriage in front of the hotel. The commotion was said to have frightened the wolves so thoroughly that “there has not been one of them or their descendants seen or heard of in town since.” Revel in the victory by making a little thunder! \n+ Step Inside “Remick’s Hotel”\nNow known as the Captain Enoch Remick House (initial build c. 1808)\, enter the room where thirsty revelers may have extended their celebration (more about that on the tour…): the Drs. Remick apothecary (1904–1993) believed to have been the hotel’s tavern\, artistically transformed for the event. All revelers receive a chit (voucher)\, redeemable for a same-day tasting that includes a sample of their locally crafted Siege of Wolves Spiced Rum at Tamworth Distilling & Mercantile\, a walkable\, stone’s-throw away. \n+ “See the Siege” for Yourself\nOn view in the “hotel\,” see Siege of Wolves\, a painting by Jackson\, New Hampshire artist David C. Baker (1915–1999)\, depicting his interpretation of the historic event. This colorful painting (approximately 2′ x 3′) is on loan from the Tamworth History Center\, located across the street from the house.
