 In 1905 the members of the Society tendered a proposal to the Boston Medical Library to disband : the proposal was rejected , however , both by the library and by vote at the next meeting . By this time the Society had reduced its meetings to an annual occurrence , and it was generally viewed as " undesirable " to have them more often , due to the fact that the Medical Library and the Suffolk District Medical Society had begun to hold joint sessions . The last record of the Society comes from 1917 .
