27. After three years' study the students pass their junior examination in
Medicine, and then study for two years more the following subjects:—
28. Surgery. —This is taught by Dr. Lawrie in a series of lectures, which
continue both during the summer and winter months. During the former the
students are also taught operative surgery practically on the dead body, and
during all the year the lectures are illustrated by the cases in the hospital and
among the out-patients.
29. Medicine. —This subject is taught by the Principal in a series of lec-
tures, which are continued both during the summer and winter months, and are
illustrated by cases in the hospital and out-patient department and by the
post-mortem examinations.
30. Midwifery.—Dr. Scriven lectures on this subject during the summer
months, and a few of the students have the opportunity of seeing some cases of
labour in the Mayo Hospital, when any are admitted; but this does not happen
very frequently.
31. Medical Jurisprudence. —This subject is shared among three of the
Professors. The Professor of Surgery teaches that part which relates to wounds,
the Civil Surgeon lectures on insanity, the Professor of Chemistry undertakes
Toxicology, and the Principal teaches the other subjects. Occasionally cases
are admitted into hospital which illustrate these lectures and then are seen by
the students.
32. Ophthalmic Surgery. —Dr. Scriven lectures on this subject during the
winter months; the lectures are illustrated by patients who attend the hospital
as out-patients, or are received into it.
33. The civil medical pupils will attend the same courses as the rest of
the pupils of the English Class.
34. The Hindustani Class pursue their studies for three years, or in the
case of the Hakim students for four years, during which they study the follow-
ing subjects:—
35. During the first year they are taught Anatomy, by Assistant Surgeon
Muhammad Hussain Khan, both by lectures and by demonstrations on the
dead body, while the pupils also dissect with their own hands. The lectures
are carried on both during the winter and the summer, but the dissections
only in the cold weather.
36. The pupils also receive instruction in Materia Medica from Honorary
Surgeon Rahim Khan, Khan Bahadur, and are taught dispensing in the Mayo
Hospital. These lectures are also continued both during the winter and
summer months, and are accompanied with examinations.
37. During the second year the above courses are repeated, and in addi-
tion the students receive a course of lectures on Medicine, also by Honorary
Surgeon Rahim Khan, Khan Bahadur; and these lectures are illustrated by
demonstrations of diseases in the out-patient department, which these students
attend at this period of their studies.
38. A course of lectures on Surgery is also given by Assistant Surgeon
Brij Lal Ghose, Rai Bahadur, who illustrates his lectures by operations on the
dead body, and by the cases which occur in the out-patients' room. These
lectures are continued both during the summer and the winter sessions.
39. During the third year the students cease to attend lectures entirely,
but they devote themselves to the practical work of their profession, going
round the wards regularly with the Professors and dispensing medicines, and
attending all the cases in hospital; but they continue to attend the different ex-
aminations on all the subjects that they have formerly studied, and also practise
all the minor operations on the dead body, and subsequently on the out-patients
when opportunity offers.
40. The Hakim Class undergo a similar course; but they also receive a
series of lectures on Chemistry given by Assistant Surgeon Amir Shah, and il-
lustrated by experiments with apparatus supplied from the chemical laboratory,
during the winter months; and in the summer months they receive a series of
