 as an embodiment of the remarks made to students at- 

 tending my course of Operative Surgery at Charing 

 Cross Hospital. 



The engravings are, in some instances, borrowed by 

 permission from Mr. Heath's excellent work on Practi- 

 cal Anatomy, or have been drawn upon wood by myself, 

 Mr. Wesley, and Mr. Sherwin, from nature, or have 

 been adapted from such sources as will be found ac- 

 knowledged in their proper places. 



I have to express my obligation to my friend Dr. 

 James Cantlie, M. A., M. C., Demonstrator of Anatomy 

 at Charing Cross Hospital, for his kindness in revising 

 the proofs, and for other valuable assistance.
