    liberality has so much extended my op- portunities of gaining information. To those Gentlemen in the County of Norfolk and Suffolk, in several other parts of Great Britain, and on the Continent, who have favoured me with their cor- respondence and assistance, I am equally indebted. And I shall be amply recom- pensed for the little time and exertion I have bestowed upon the following pages, should the Medical Profession in general not deem them altogether useless and superfluous.
