Book excerpt: Excerpt from General Index to the Transactions of the Pathological Society of London: For Vols; 38 to 50, 1887-99 The present General Index includes the communications made to the Pathological Society of London during the thirteen years 1887 to 1899, both inclusive, and contained within Vols. XXXVIII to L. It constitutes the fourth General Index issued since the foundation of the Society. The first of these four indices was published in 1864, on the completion of Vol. XV of the 'transactions.' The compila tion of that index was undertaken by Mr. Timothy Holmes, then Surgical Secretary, and the cost of its publication was defrayed by Sir Prescott Hewett. After the lapse of ten years a second General Index Was presented to the Society by the late Dr. T. B. Peacock. It contained references to the contents of Vols. XVI to XXV of the Transactions, ' and was compiled by Mr. Wheatley, the Resident Librarian of the Royal Medical and Chirurgical Society. The third General Index was prepared by Mr. J. B. Bailey, whilst Librarian of the Royal College of Surgeons. At the time of publication of the last-mentioned Index (in 1887) a hepe was expressed by the Council that on the issue of the fiftieth volume, a General Index of the whole series might be appropriately made. After mature deliberation, however, the Council concluded that the expense of such a publication (even were the labour of compilation gratuitously borne by members of the Society) would render it unadvisable; nor did they consider the need of it pressing, in view of the efficiency of the three indices already extant. The Council resolved, therefore, to publish an Index which should cover the thirteen years from 1887 to 1889, both inclusive.
