Dedication

TO G. C. MARCHANT, M.D.

My Dear Sir — For twenty years past I have been intimately acquainted with you, and I enjoy the pleasing reflection that we have, during that entire period, remained warm, personal friends. Fully sensible of your sterling integrity and honor as a man and a distinguished American citizen, and sensible that the science of Electrical Psychology will prove to be most deeply interesting to your discerning and gifted mind, and that you will love, honor, and cherish it as you do the other sciences of the day with which you have become familiar ; and having so often and deeply felt your friendship in acts of kindness, I claim the favor, as an expression of my confidence in your goodness, and also in your medical skill, to dedicate this work to you. You will perceive that I have intentionally written it in a fanciful style, so as to make it pleasing to readers in general ; and surely you, as a critic, will overlook this, as I have also endeavored to please the scholar by throwing out before him a fair and liberal specimen of original thought. As such it is most respectfully inscribed to you by your sincere friend,

J. B. DODS.
