Excerpt from Transactions of the International Medical Congress, Vol. 2 of 4: Seventh Session, Held in London, August 2d to 9th, 1881 Gentlemen, friends, and colleagues - I am deeply sensible of the honour conferred upon me in being called upon to preside over this Section, and I offer you my cordial thanks. Happily the duties will not be arduous, since the general addresses, which have been arranged and admirably allotted, relieve me of the responsibility of attempting to develop before you the actual position of medicine, or the probable lines of its future progress. As the International Medical Congress assembles in England for the first time, under the auspices of Queen Victoria, so I am reminded that three hundred years ago, under Queen Elizabeth, Bacon enunciated for the first time, in the simplest terms, the position Of the student of Nature in relation to the work before him.
