Excerpt from Immunity in Infective Diseases
The marginal reference to the pages of the original work will, I hope, commend itself to those readers who may wish to refer to the ipsissima verba of the author. It is, I believe, a novelty in scientific works, though familiar in works in other departments of literature.
