MEADE CLYNE Arizona, The Youngest State, 1913, pg 617 Dr. Meade Clyne, now a physician of Tucson, was born on the 30th day of April 1882, in Joliet, Illinois, of which city his parents, John T. and Anna (McCloskey) Clyne, are still residents. Both are natives of New York state. The Doctor passed his boyhood and youth in Joliet and is indebted to its public schools for his early education. After his graduation from high school he matriculated in the medical college of the Northwestern University at Chicago and was graduated from that institution with the class of 1907. An excellent student, he made notable progress in his work and was held in high regard by members of the faculty. Immediately following his graduation he was appointed intern at Wesley Hospital, Chicago, where he remained for two years, and the practical experience thus acquired, together with his thorough preparation, well qualified him to begin his independent career on his return to Joliet, where he maintained an office for one year. Believing that the southwest afforded better opportunities, Dr. Clyne came to Tucson in 1910 and has since successfully engaged in practice in this city. A fine mind, independent and decisive habits of thought make him a power in the sickroom. For three years he maintained an office alone but at the end of that time he and three other physicians purchased what was then known as the Rogers Hospital, but now the Arizona Hospital of which he is one of the directors. In 1911 and 1912 he served as secretary of the Pima County Medical Society and was honored with the presidency of that organization in 1914. On the 28th of March 1910 Dr. Clyde was united in marriage to Miss Alice Budlong, a native of Chicago.
