    PREFACE. It was the wish of the faculty that some public testimony of our attachment to you, our honoured colleague, should be offered on this occasion, and it fills me with lively satisfaction that I have been deputed to offer it. The treatise which I have the honour of dedicating to you is linked with your name by more than one tie. The investigations upon which it is based have been carried out in the Strassburg Clinic, over which you presided for twelve years. There I found many diagnostic and therapeutic traditions, handed down from your time, which, have afforded me food for reflection, and quickly convinced me that my subject, cholelithiasis, is one in which you also have taken a special interest. I venture to hope, therefore, that this tribute of respect, presented to the veteran master by his successor, will not prove unwelcome. Strassburg, February 22ncl, 1892. NAUNYN.
