    PREFACE. These lectures were recently delivered to the pupils of the Philadelphia Hospital Training School for Nurses. It was my intention to have them ap- pear in a medical journal, if they were published; but a strong desire that they should be presented in a more permanent form having been expressed, has led me to change my first purpose. The lectures are published as they were given, only a few eliminations having been made; but as some important topics were omitted, or only par- tially presented, these are considered, in alphabetical order, in an appendix. My hope is that this little work may prove in some degree interesting, instructive and useful to those engaged in the study of obstetric nursing, and thus through them do good to all unto whom they may be called to minister. July, 1889.
