DEDICATION. TO PROFESSORS POST, VAN BUREN, METCALF, AND BEDFORD.
Reading edition
For those lucid Clinic illustrations and faithful instructions during a three-years' course in the New York Medical University, particularly the critical Pathological knowledge there inculcated, and consequent professional success, the youthful author is indebted.
Knowing they will agree with him, that his appreciation of their valued services, and his gratitude for the same, can be best acknowledged in his attempt to benefit suffering humanity, he would here publicly acknowledge the pleasure and benefit received from their instructions during his College course, and beg their acceptance of his sincerest gratitude and affection.
To these able Instructors this Volume is cordially Dedicated by the Junior Author.
