OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY.

Professor Dabney.

In Obstetrics instruction is given by lectures, and the mechanical principles
involved in the study are explained and illustrated by the use of suitable
preparations and models. The student is drilled in this part of the subject
during the early part of the course, and attention is subsequently called to the

diseases and accidents incident to pregnancy and the puerperal state. Each
student is also taught practically the various operations, both manual and instrumental.
In Gynecology instruction is given by lectures and recitations,
with practical training in the details of ordinary gynæcological work.
