Abstract

Omaha, Nov.16, 1905. <h3>To the Editor:</h3> —My attention has just been called to an error made in my paper, "Indications for the Removal of the Pathologic Spleen," inThe Journal, Sept. 2, 1905. Through some inadvertence I stated that Arteage preceded Dr. Edward T. Williams (not Williamson), of Boston, in the demonstration of nucleated red blood corpuscles in animal spleens. I find that this was an error and that Dr. Williams deserves priority in this matter, having published articles in<i>American Medicine</i>, April 26, 1902, and Nov. 28, 1903, on this subject. <h3>A Hint for the Anesthetist.</h3> —When it is necessary for the anesthetist to hold the patient's jaw forward, he will obviate much subsequent soreness by exerting the pressure on only one side at a time.—<i>Medical Standard</i>.
