viii A Manual of Anatomy 



obtained from private sources which are duly noted, and, lastly, some 

 have been specially prepared for me. 



Though the reader will not find his attention distracted by foot- 

 notes, he will constantly meet with figures placed parenthetically in 

 the text, thus : (p. 67). They direct him to pages whence side-lights are 

 thrown upon the subject under consideration. It is by no means 

 necessary that he should always use them ; but it is thought that their 

 insertion may save him time in referring to the index, and induce 

 him to make his knowledge of the part the more thorough. 



For much kind help in seeing the proofs through the press, my 

 warm thanks are due to Mr. J. Arthur Kempe, Demonstrator of 

 Anatomy at Queen's College, Birmingham. 



LONDON : February 1890.
