Following up this fact he was enabled, by careful observation and experiment, to correctly determine the exact function of almost every 'mind faculty, by noticing what mental Characteristics invariably accompanied certain Cranial developments. This knowledge was later verified by observation of the effect of disease or injury of these parts. These investigations and experiments led to the fact, that the size of each organ, other things being equal, is the measure of the power of that organ.
