Abstract
On preparing to write this final chapter, it struck me that the best form in which to cast it would be that of a volume of annals. I cannot indeed remember the exact dates, but the course of events that occurred in the second or third year, or thereafter, I recollect with the utmost precision. By laying before the reader the more important facts, I feel that he or she will form a much more accurate and faithful notion of the aspects of the social organization of medical science; some of its human costs, passions, frailties and gaieties, frustrations, and achievements.
