given to our predecessors, be careful of giving us your whole

IMPORTANT Notice. — As we go to the binder , on account of 
numerous letters of inquiries that we have received , we feel that 
we must make a statement of importance to those who have sub¬ 
scribed with Sabiston , Murray & Co ., who have paid for their 
subscription , or who may have received communications from the 
receiver appointed by the Court to settle their business. We have 
not nor will we assume any connections or responsibility in these 
matters . We can do nothing in relation to these claims , and the 
work that we are now undertaking must be considered as new and 
entirely independent of the last 18 years. 
As we have said already—shall we live, or not. It is for the 
Veterinarians to answer. 
United States Veterinary Medical Association. 
Since the Review has existed we never have failed to remind 
our readers of the meetings of this national body. Initiated 
with it, born with it, informed of all its actions it was not a duty 
but a pleasure to call the profession to the work in perspec¬ 
tive. 
For some reasons unknown we have as yet not been officially 
informed of the coming annual meeting—no doubt when all is 
well prepared and the programme well known the officers of the 
association will not ignore the influence that the Review 
might have in the success of the next gathering and then we 
will be better able to speak of the work and of the pleasure 
which is going to occupy the days of the September meeting. 
As it is, however, we take advantage of the notice which has , 
appeared in our contemporary the Journal of Comparative Medi¬ 
cine and little as our information may seem we are pleased to 
announce that the “ the Comitia Minora of the association have 
decided to hold the annual meeting of 1895 in September next, 
in Des Moines, Iowa.”
