749 UNIVERSITY OF LONDON.-The following is a list of week "repeat" that the staff have "neglected" the duty of "meeting the specific charges boldly, taking the profession the candidates who have passed the recent Second M.B. into their confidence." Why, this is exactiy what they did Examination:FIRST DIVISION. when, on the 31st of July, they forwarded to you the resolution which, after due deliberation, they had unanimously Barrow, Albert Boyce, King’s College.

Again, you complain that the "proceedings seem to be Smith, Herbert Urmson, St. Thomas’sHospital. enshrouded in needless obscurity." This is the fault, not of Symonds, Charters James, Guy’s Hospital. the staff, but of the "Committee of Inquiry," whose" impuTirard, Nestor Isidore Charles, King’s College. tations, privately made, have been enshrouded in needless

Once more, you say "it would be simply obeying the natural impulse of a keen sense of honour to repudiate in public the imputation privately made." It was in obedience to this impulse that the staff forwarded to you the resolution which had the misfortune to be too curt to secure publicity through your columns. It seems to me that "imputations privately made" are quite incompatible with "a keen sense of honour,"and may therefore be safely treated with contempt. I am. Sir. vour obedient servant.

DR. SAYRE’S PLASTER-OF-PARIS APPARATUS. LANCET. of 481 of issue 29th Sept., 1877, you SIR,—On p. your refer to an article from the Lexington Press (which was iasued during my absence from the country), charging me with having taken the idea of my treatment of spinal curvature by suspension and the use of plaster-of-Paris bandage from Dr. Bryan, of Lexington, Ky. By referring to my first report on Pott’s disease, and its treatment by suspension and the plaster-of-Paris jacket, in the Transactions of the American Medical Association fox 1876, p. 585; also to my recent work on Spinal Curvatures, &c., by Smith, Elder, and Co., 15, Waterloo-place, London, you will see, by a letter to me from Dr. Bryan himself, that this charge is absolutely false. By giving this insertion you will very much oblige, Yours most respectfully, LEWIS A. SAYRE. Fifth-avenue, New Yorli, Oct. 31st, 1877. To the Editor
