    position on the Honorary Staff of the General In- tirmary at Leeds, I have had the opportunity of seeing a considerable number of cases of chole- hthiasis, and of operating on those that required surgical interference, which experience I have embodied in this work. It may perhaps be thought that I have re- ported the cases in the final chapters with too much detail. For this I offer my readers no apology, as I feel sure that it is only by giving accurate details of individual cases, that the ex- perience gained by one can be handed on to others who have not had the same opportunities, but who may, nevertheless, be called upon to advise on the subject. My thanks are due to the President and Council of the Royal Society for kindly permit- ting me to reproduce a paper of mine published in their Proceedings; to Mr. Jonathan Hutchinson, F.R.S., for allowing me to make use of plates, and to refer to cases published in his Archives of Surgery; to Mr. Lawson Tait, for the use of an illustration published in the Edinburgh Medical Journal; and to Dr. MacGregor Young, M.A., for his valuable assist- ance, not only in the execution of some of the figures, but in the revision of proofs. Hillary Place, Leeds, March 10, 1892.
