Isaac H. Davis, M.D., D.D.S., to whom the dental section of this book is affectionately dedicated, was born in Frederick County, Maryland. His early life was spent on the farm, and, while yet in his "teens," his time was occupied during the winter months as a teacher in the public schools of the state.
The name of Isaac H. Davis appears as a Freshman on the first list of students registered by the Dental Department of the University of Maryland, and dated back to 1882. He received the degree of Doctor of Dental Surgery in the spring of 1884 and one year later was given the degree of Doctor of Medicine by the School of Medicine of the University of Maryland. On April 1st, 1885, he was elected Assistant Demonstrator of Operative Dentistry by the Dental Faculty, and at the same time was placed in full charge of the Dental Infirmary during what was then known as the Spring and Summer Course. His services in these capacities continued until 1889, at which time he was promoted to the position of Chief Demonstrator of Operative Dentistry. This important post of duty claimed his attention for twenty-three consecutive years. On June 25th, 1907, he was elected by the Faculty to fill the Chair of Clinical Dentistry and Orthodontia, and his teaching of these subjects continued until December, 1910, when he was elected to succeed the late James H. Harris as Professor of Operative and Clinical Dentistry.
Professor Davis' very intimate association with students, covering a long term of years, may account in some degree for the successful and satisfactory manner in which he dealt with his pupils. The inherent qualities of the man, and nobility of character, always markedly evident, will surely complete the explanation of the wonderful influence he had on the men of the various classes. As a teacher his instruction was always to the point, being clearly thought out and presented in the most forceful manner. His views on methods and practice were ever well defined, yet lacked that bias so frequently found in others of equal or even less attainment in his particular line. His bearing in the presence of his pupils was always delicately dignified, yet all felt at liberty to freely approach him with their problems, and none were turned away without an honest and conscientious effort to aid in the matter of information sought.
As a man and as a teach, his personality was reflected on those who were privileged to sit under his teaching. He was our ideal and we pay him honest tribute of our affection because of his untiring patience, his sympathetic nature, his helpful instruction, and peerless character.
On February 8, 1918, after a short illness, he was called by "the Ruler of the Universe," whereby the University of Maryland, the profession, as well as the laity, suffered an irreparable loss.
