Excerpt from A Ministry of Health: And Other Addresses

Three of these addresses, published originally in the 'Gentleman's Magazine, ' having been often called for, are supplied in this volume, together with six others dealing with allied subjects.

The first address, on A Ministry of Health, was delivered before the Sanitary Institute of Great Britain, at the Stafford Congress of the Institute, in October last, and was intended to invite attention to one of the most pressing reforms of the day. The favour with which the address was received by almost all sections of the public press leads me to hope that the time is near when the legislative bodies will find the subject it discusses worthy of earnest consideration.
