APPENDIX. 801 



68, Hatton Garden, Oct, 1, 1828. 

 My Dear Sib, 

 I hare to apologize for not replying to your note at an earlier period, 

 and beg to assure you that nothing could give me more sincere pleasure 

 than advancing the interests of any member of the profession. 



I feel complimented by your request, that I ivould visit your Museum, 

 and certify my opinion of it, which I shall do as soon as convenience 

 shall permit. From the great industry and deep research you have shown 

 in your Dictionary of Anatomy and Physiology, the oidy one in any 

 language, and in your other works, I am disposed to think, that the legal 

 authorities of the Royal College of Surgeons and Apothecaries' Hall, will 

 readily agree as to your competency to discharge the duties of Lecturer on 

 Anatomy and Surgery. 



I remain, dear Sir, yours very truly, 



M. RYAN, M. D. M.R.C.S.L. & E. 

 Lecturer on Medicine, Midwifery, and Medical 

 Jurisprudence, also Editor of the London Medi- 

 cal and Surg-ical Journal.
