    Library, where the archives of the Barber-Surgeons are at present housed, formally vouched for its absence. There is no index to those enfranchised by the Society of Apothecaries ; but unrestricted access to the Society’s records, together with the tireless and skilled help of the Secretary, Ernest Busby, Esq., in searching them, uncovered no sign that George Armstrong ever practised under the aegis of this ancient and worshipful Society. W. R. Fanu, Esq., M.A., the Librarian of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, kindly made certain that the name of George Armstrong never was listed in the records under his care. The search of the service records at the Public Record Office was less conclusive, but equally unavailing. 12. Add. MSS., British Museum. John Wilkes’ Correspondence. Vol. I, 1739-63, No. 30,867.
