I have removed the following quote from the beginning of the article ( example):
"Many who knew him, can bear testimony to the kindness of his disposition, and the generosity of his nature."
— Sacket’s Harbor Observer, Memoirs of Dr. Samuel Guthrie, June 1, 1919
Its position at the very start of the article, before any actual biographical content about Guthrie, is unencyclopedic and unnecessary, and contrary to Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lead section. Anyone seeking to re-add it should first establish consensus on this talk page before doing so. DanCherek ( talk) 13:56, 10 May 2022 (UTC)
