WALMSLEY, Church-street, Liverpool. 1840.

Extract from the Recortlx of the Liverpool Medical Insti-

tution

" December 19th, 1839..

" Mr. Neill read his paper entitled v'
the Diseases of the
Eustachian Tubes, and their treatment ; particularly with
reference to the use of the Catheter and Air-Press.'
" The object of Mr. Neill's paper was to bring under the
notice of the Association the recent improvements in Aural
Surgery, which have been introduced by Delem, Kramer,
and others, particularly in the examination and treatment of
the diseases of the Eustachian tubes by the catheter and air-
press. He gave a general account of the morbid conditions
to which the Eustachian tubes are liable, with the-diagnostic
marks peculiar to each. He next described the apparatus
employed by Kramer (the catheter and air-press), which he
stated he had used with much advantage ; and exhibited its
mode of application in several cases.
" A lengthened discussion took place on the merits of the
plan of treatment, after which a rote of thanks to Mr. Neill
was carried unanimously for his having brought the subject
before the Association."
