Excerpt from Hand-Book of Practical Midwifery: Including Full Instruction for the Homeopathic Treatment of the Disorders of Pregnancy, and the Accidents and Diseases Incident to Labor and the Puerperal State The portions of the book taken from the general stores of knowledge upon the subject, which have been long accumulating, are such as the author has found from his personal experience to be really valuable, or such as approved themselves to his common sense. Quotations are for the most part credited to their authors. When we draw, however, upon our common stock of knowledge, it is often impossible to determine what is originally our own, or what we have gotten by the way from some other source. It is, too, a remark able fact, that the same fortunate thought often occurs to men about the same time who are distant from, and entirely independent of each other. Important truths are revealed to the world in the fulness of time, when mankind is more or less prepared for their reception but their introduction and promulgation are seldom entrusted to a single individual, however gifted he may be. In using the results of other men's labors, the author cherishes the belief, that he has wished to render to every man his due, and if to the reader any thing appear seemingly at variance with such avowal, it is hoped he will charitably attribute it to oversight, rather than to dishonorable intention.
