    MISCELLANEOUS CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE STUDY OF PATHOLOGY. BY JOHN W. OGLE, M.D., PHYSICIAN AND LECTURER ON PATHOLOGY, ST. GEORGE’S HOSPITAL. (Reprinted from the ‘British and Foreign Medico-Chirurgical Review,’ Jan. and April, 1868.) Having from time to time during the last two or three years collected material from our hospital books for clinical and patho- logical lectures, I propose in this series to place on record some of the cases from that source which have furnished me with a basis for my lectures.1 I shall also incorporate with them a few other cases which have come under my own notice bearing on the subject in hand, and append allusions to any cases from other quarters which may appear specially illustrative of it. The instances of chorea which I have placed in Chapter the First I had already prepared and intended to have supplied (now nearly a year ago) to this Review, but postponed them on ascertaining that my friend Dr. Tuckwell, of Oxford, was engaged upon the observations which, in connection with the interesting case of fatal maniacal chorea, were published in the number for October last.2 I propose to add, by way of short notes upon the individual cases, such observations as each one may suggest, and at the end of the chapter comment upon them as a whole. 1 The cases which I have prepared for this series are cases of chorea, of fatal tetanus, and of fatal poisoning. s I shall append to this chapter the details of a chronic but severe case of maniacal chorea in a pregnant unmarried girl, which not long ago came under my care at the hospital.
