Professor of Pathology, Cambridge University ; Director, Laboratories (Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons.) Prof. Woodhead was retained as Consulting Bacteriologist to the Metropolitan Asylums' Board, and this work contains a report on all the doubtful and obscure cases submitted to him from the Board's hospitals.
