DEAR SIR,

The pathology of the disease which you were the first to describe, and which is inseparably associated with your name, has engaged the attention of many inquirers. The disease has been examined from various points of view, and much has been done to elucidate its causes, its complications, and its progress. The subject, however, is not exhausted; and in the following pages I have endeavoured to remove some of the obscurity which still surrounds several points connected with this disease.

It is with sincere and grateful respect that I dedicate these pages to you, animated with the hope that they may assist to place on a true basis the pathology of the disease which bears your name, and contribute to our knowledge of the foretokens of these diseases of the kidney.

I am,
Dear Sir,

Very faithfully yours,

17, CHESTER STREET, GROSVENOR PLACE;
August 21st, 1858.

W. R. BASHAM.
