dered by the legislature of Connection
and city of Hartford, is nearly ready 10
erection in the beautiful park Of that city
and committee of the Hartford medlca
society ask for subscriptions from III
medical faculty and dental profession It
meet the expense of bronze pedestal
"with high and costly adornment, in bas
reliefs, in inscriptions, etc, suited to ex
emplify the uses of the discovery, at thu
same time that it commentaries the dis
coyerer." 1t has been deemed eXpedicn
