About The AuthorCoan, T.M. (Titus Munson) (1836–1921). Titus Munson, physician, born in Hilo, Hawaiian islands, 27 September, 1836, was educated at home and in the royal school and the Punahou academy at Honolulu, where he was prepared for College. Coming to the United States in 1856, he spent a year at Yale, but went subsequently to Williams, where he was graduated in 1859. He studied medicine at the New York College of physicians and surgeons, and took his degree in 1861. Dr. Coan afterward served two years in the City hospitals, and more than two years in the United States navy, under Admiral Farragut as assistant surgeon, 1863-'5, being present at the battle of Mobile Bay. Resigning from the naval service in December, 1865, he resumed his residence in New York, which has been his home ever since. Dr. Coau first became known as a writer by his essays in the " Galaxy" (1869-'77). He has contributed many literary, critical, and technical papers, and poems, to various periodicals, and has published in book-form "Ounces of Prevention" (New York, 1885); a " Universal Gazetteer" (a supplement to "Webster's Dictionary," 1885); and he edited "Topics of the Time" (6 vols., New York, 1883). Dr. Coan has written much on the subject of mineral springs, to which he has given special study during repeated visits to Europe.
