چکیده
atrick Watson-Williams, though I know his son, and now his grandson is one of my ^leagues on the staff of the Manchester Royal Infirmary. Patrick Watson-Williams plonged to the golden age of British Otolaryngology; an age on the pages of whose ^story occur such names as Sir St. Clair Thomson, J. S. Fraser, Jenkins, Scott, Browne% and Paterson. They are now numbered amongst the immortals of our specialty. . Whenever I think of Patrick Watson-Williams, I naturally think of the para-nasal air sinuses and perhaps the sphenodial air sinus more than any of the others. When 0^e recalls that all the sensory nerves supplying the structures of the face pass close to e sphenoidal air sinus, it is not a very big step for one's interest to become centered ?n the trigeminal nerve.

What sort of people were the doctors in this country two hundred years ago and later ? How did they dress, speak and act, and how did their contemporaries regard them ? One way to answer these questions is to read the novels of the time : provided, of course, that we confine ourselves to those novels which attempt to portray contemporary life and manners, and which were accepted as such by the ...
