tutio,' of Servetus, the publication of which
cost the author his life. This particular
copy was reputed to have belonged to Col
lodon, one of his accusers. The doctor de-
termined TO reprint the ill-fated work in
quarto, but before the edition was complet-
ed, the sheets were seized. at tho instance
Of DR.. Gibson, Bishop Of London. and the
impression burned, May q, 1928 A few
copies escaped destruction. one of which
may be seen In the library of the Medical
Society of London. In 1770, perfect re-
print was issued, but only four copies are
known to be in existence. The original

Those who do not desire TO re enlist for

as to enable them to retire with honor. IN
accordance With their enlistment.
cannot refrain from saying ihat it would
afford me pleasure to see the Regiments so
