Footnotes

It should be stated that it was for this Essay that the Astley Cooper Prize for 1877 was originally awarded to Drs. Eulenburg and Gattmann—a decision, however, which was subsequently overthrown on the technical ground that the paper was the work of two authors, and not of one only—as the terms of Sir A. Cooper's will seem to require. This essay having been handed in in October, 1876, there are no references to any papers on the subject written since then.
