    PREFATORY NOTE. In preparing this Sketch for the press, my intention was merely to have given the Lecture as delivered before the Royal College of Surgeons, with notes and some additions to the text. But as I proceeded, I found that, in order to do justice to the subject, it was necessaiy to extend the text to several times its original dimensions, and, in order to render the statements authentic, to give numerous references and somewhat lengthy foot-notes. The whole of the part relating to the separation of Physiology and Surgery from the courses of Anatomy has been added. J. S.
