MY DEAR SIR,

To no one could these Lectures be so appropriately inscribed, as yourself. Indebted to you for the high honour of being called upon to address the College,

aided by you in the selection of the subjects of my Lectures, - stimulated by your example in the cultivation of those branches of Physical Science which are related to Medicine, - I owe you a debt of gratitude, which I can thus but feebly and imperfectly repay. Ever, my dear Sir, Sincerely and respectfully yours,
