    To THE Clinical Class of the Philadelphia Hospital, FOR 1866-67. Gtentlemen: It is a pleasure, and indeed it is almost a duty, to inscribe this little work to you, who enjoyed with me the rare opportunity of studying an epidemic of meningitis. It will, perhaps, serve to recall many things which you would otherwise have forgotten, and to impress you with a clearer idea of this curious disease than you could obtain from the fragmentary remarks made at our cHnical conferences. Availing myself of this opportunity to commend your diligent and patient attendance upon our meetings, and to thank you for the many other evidences of the interest which you manifested in our common labors, I remain, very faithfully, your obedient servant, Alfred Stille. 1500 Walnut Street, September, 1867.
