    THE INTRODUCTION TO THE CATALOGUE OF CALCULI NOW AT THE EOYAL COLLEGE OP SUEGEONS, AND EEPEINTED THEEEFEOM, BY ITSELF This volume contains, arranged in a tabular form, a brief account of every case, without exception, of Stone in the Bladder which has been operated on by myself, from the first in 1857, to the present date, April 1893. The name of each patient, with his or her age, the nature of the operation, the year in which it was per- formed, the nature and number of the calculi present, and the after-history so far as I have been able to ascertain it, are recorded, each particular in a separate column. [I offer here an abstract from the Catalogue which accompanies the Cabinet of Calculi at the College of Surgeons, to illustrate these remarks, and those which follow.]
