Excerpt from On the Structure and Development of the Skull in the Pig (Sus Scrofa), And, on the Structure and Development of the Skull in the Mammalia: Part II. Edentata; Part III. Insectivora

Since my first attempt to work out the Mammalian type of skull, the greater part of my time has been spent upon Cold-blooded vertebrata-fishes, Amphibia, and Reptiles. But between the early part of 1873, when my paper on the skull of the Pig was presented to the Royal Society, to the beginning of 1882, when I was able to take up this Class once more, no time or chance was lost as far as materials for work go; during those nine years a very large collection of embryos and of early young of the various types of Mammalia was made.

This collection of materials is still going on, and will I trust go on for years to come. No work lies before me of greater importance; and if the skull m the Orders of this, the highest Class, can thus be illustrated, it will give some roundness and shape to the efforts and labour of the whole life of a never-weary worker.

Excerpt from On the Structure and Development of the Skull in the Pig (Sus Scrofa), And, on the Structure and Development of the Skull in the Mammalia: Part II. Edentata; Part III. Insectivora
Since the older writer, no native anatomist has arisen more fitted to hold and to handle this difficult subject than the author of those Lectures.
I shall follow up this matter from point to point in the same manner as that pursued in the papers already offered to the Society; and my endeavour is to link on paper to paper so that they may form an organic whole, the idea and purpose being the same in each, and the special mode of treatment the same.
In the present communication more relative anatomy has been given than in the former papers; I have to steer between the confusion arising from the display of too many parts, and the baldness of a mere account of skeletal structures.
