ABSTRACT WE regret extremely to have to announce the death of this distinguished physician and anthropologist, which took place suddenly at Paris on Thursday last. He had attended a meeting
of the Senate, of which he had lately been elected a member, and died during the night in consequence of the rupture of an aneurism. He was fifty-six years of age, born at St. Foy, in the
Gironde, educated for the medical profession, and became Professor of Surgical Pathology at Paris. He soon acquired a high reputation by his researches in cerebral pathology, and continued
to devote himself with great zeal to hospital work and clinical teaching to the last; but it is chiefly in consequence of his having taken up the subject of anthropology that he has obtained
a world-wide fame, and occupied a position which it will indeed be difficult to fill up. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access
