A Map is given (facing page 1 2), which shows the position of the various 

 asylums in Scotland, and the areas or districts from which the inmates of each 

 asylum are drawn. 



I have to thank very cordially the members of the Henderson Trust, and 

 particularly Sir Arthur Mitchell and Sir John Sibbald, for the great interest they 

 have taken in this work, for their kindness in affording the means of carrying out 

 a survey which supplies such valuable information respecting the cranial characters 

 of man, and for the honour they have conferred on me by entrusting me with the 

 task of editing their first publication.
