    SIR, In consequence of tlie retirement of Dr. Kerr from the Surgical Staff of the Aberdeen Koyal Infirmary, and resulting changes in the position of the members of the Staff, there will be a vacancy in the Junior Surgeon- ship. I beg leave to offer myself as a Candidate, and take the liberty of sending you herewith a copy of my Testi¬ monials. I may mention that, five years ago, I was unanimously appointed to the office of Resident Surgeons’ Assistant at the Hospital here, and, after holding that office for a year, had the opportunity of studying under some of the most eminent Surgeons at several large Continental Hospitals for a period of two years. Respectfully soliciting your best consideration of my application, and the favour of your support at the election, 1 am, SIR, Your obedient Servant, ROBERT JOHN GARDEN. 2 0 7, Union Steket, Aberdeen, 29th May, 1876.
