PREFACE.
The nature of the present work having been
sufficiently indicated on the Title Page, it is
unnecessary for me to occupy the reader's attention
with any lengthened prefatory remarks.
I feel, however, that I cannot permit its issue
without recording my deep sense of obligation to
Dr. Davaine, of Paris, the author of one of the best
modern treatises upon Entozoa,^ for the disinterested
and unconditional manner in which he per-gave me
mission to make use of any portions his workof
and to Messrs. Bailliere and Son, the proprietors
of the copyright, as well as the publishers, of
Dr. Davaine's treatise, for a similar privilege, of
which I have, as will be seen upon a perusal of the
following pages, largely availed myself.
It also affords me much gratification to express
here my warmest thanks to those colleagues and
friends who have kindly placed at my disposal
numerous facts and cases, having especial reference
to the subject of Entozoa.

Entozoa distinct from the pathology and treatment
Iof the affections occasioned by their presence.

repetition of explanatory notes.
