    have, we think, been acknowledged in the body of the book. Should we have unwittingly withheld the name of any writer of whose work we have made use, we would here express our regret for such omission. So much, however, in Medical Jurisprudence and its allied subjects has become common property, that it is often difficult, if not impos- sible, to assign to the rightful Author his share in particular references. We take the opportunity of stating that by Resolution No. 207, dated 9th June, 1890, this book has been adopted by the Government of Madras as the text-book on Medical Jurisprudence, and also by His Highness the Nizam's Government in the examination for Police Officers, Pleaders, and others ; and having regard to the fact that, perhaps, a large number of readers embraced in these classes are more thoroughly familiar with Urdu than with English, an Urdu translation of the « Outlines will be published on the loth May of the current year. The work of transcription was undertaken by that distinguished linguist, Syed Alt Belgrami, Shams-ul-Ulama b.a., ll b., etc., whose reputation as an authority on Oriental Literature is sufficient guarantee of the genuineness of the translation. The Authors earnestly trust that this Edition has before it the same career of usefulness and popularity that attended theformer editions ; for it has been specially gratifying to them to feel that the Public appreciation of their work became so self-evident in^the fact that the Second Edition was exhausted within a few months of the date of its publication, and which has been practically out of print for the past six months.
