Dr. Samuel Moulton
Six years passed when Dr. Samuel Moulton located in what was supposed would be the capital of the county, Berkshire. He came from Vermont and was a student from Rutland, and a graduate of medicine. His erudite habits and noble character gave him a very prominent place in the town. He was well read and possessed great skill, and had the reputation of making but few mistakes. The great White Plague cut short a useful career. He died at the age of twenty-nine years, in the year 1821. His counsel was sought by his fellow practitioners, and for years they kept his memory green among the community by using the "Moulton Cathartic Pills."
