Description Of Item | Addressed to William Hamilton. He apologises for not having looked at the papers Hamilton sent in sufficient detail. He has been busy preparing a course of lectures to be delivered next winter. He admires the paper on a luxated humerus and welcomes 'every attempt to refer surgery to just anatomical principles'. He makes three hints in the form of queries. He advises against submitting the papers to the Royal Society due to its 'present langour'. |
