I have examined Bourgery’s manual, or work on Lesser Surgery, and am of opinion that it is an _excellent compend_, which contains a great deal of matter that will be useful to students. The translation which you are about to make, will deserve a large edition, and I have no doubt will meet with a ready sale. Yours truly, GEO. M’CLELLAN. DRS. ROBERTS AND KISSAM.
