Excerpt from Pathological Reflections on the Supertonic State of Disease: Read Before the Vermont Medical Society, Convened at Montpelier, October 10, 1822 Hoffman and Cullen, did much in demonstrating that the active powers of the system had an impor tant share in diseases, both as relates to the causes and actual condition of disease but yet commingled a great portion of the humoral pathology with their explanations of the phenomena of disease.

Joseph Adams Gallup was born on March 30, 1769, in Stonington, Connecticut. He was the son of William and Lucy (Denison) Gallup, and was christened Joadam. At the age of six, he was taken by his family to Hartland, Vermont.
His father was prominent in the political movements that led to the independence of the state, and, “Whig to the core, ” was a strong supporter of the Revolution.
Joseph studied medicine and, at twenty-one, began practice at Bethel, Vermont. Later, he studied at Dartmouth Medical College from which, in 1798, he received the degree of M. D.
In the fall of 1799, Joseph undertook general practice at Woodstock where he also conducted a drug business. He was active in the formation of medical societies, including the Vermont State Medical Society, incorporated in 1813. Of the latter, he became president in 1818, holding that office for eleven years.
In 1821, he became a professor of the theory and practice of medicine at the Vermont Academy of Medicine, recently established in Castleton. The following year, he was elected president of the corporation, serving as such and as professor till 1825, in which year, he became a professor of materia medica in the medical school at Burlington.
After acting in that capacity for one year, his next interest was the founding of a clinical school of medicine at Woodstock. This enterprise was the creature of his heart, his zealous purpose being to give students bedside instruction in the treatment of disease. To that end, he established an infirmary in which free treatment was given during the lecture season.
This important innovation in medical teaching dates from 1827. In connection with the school, he also published for a year or so the Domestic Medical and Dietetical Monitor or Journal of Health. His Sketches of Epidemic Diseases in the State of Vermont was published in Boston in 1815.
A more elaborate work was his Outlines of the Institutes of Medicine. An advertisement in the Vermont Journal for January 11, 1803, suggests his primacy in inoculating for cow-pox in his community, and he had the credit for being the fourth surgeon in the United States to perform ovariotomy.
Dissensions having arisen in the Woodstock faculty, Dr. Gallup withdrew in 1834, whereupon he removed to Boston, remained there a few years, and then returned to Woodstock, where he died October 12, 1849. He was buried in Hartland.

Village annals reflect Joseph as a man of strong character and great initiative. In our day, he would doubtless have been described as “temperamental”; but if he was strict and stern in discipline, he was himself “amenable to correction if applied in the right way. ”
Joseph's wife, whom he married in September 1792, was Abigail Willard.
