    IO was entrusted by the Council to a Committee consisting' of Dr. Abercrombie, Dr. Louis Parkes, and the Honorary Secretaries. This Committee held several protracted meetings, and devoted a large amount of time to the work, including a full consideration of the various valuable suggestions submitted by many members of the Association and others specially interested in the subject. The Council takes this opportunity of ex¬ pressing its cordial appreciation of the painstaking care with which this Committee has fulfilled a task involving no inconsiderable amount of labour, and calling for the exercise of much discriminating judgment. The Council is most anxious to keep the teaching of its Code abreast with the improved medical and hy¬ gienic knowledge of the age ; and it trusts that the time and labour which have been expended on the preparation of the present edition may serve to maintain its position as an authoritative and trustworthy manual of reference for all those interested in the admittedly important questions with which it attempts to deal.
