Excerpt from Surgery of Deformities of the Face: Including Cleft Palate The appointment to deliver the Mutter Lectures of the College of Physicians of Philadelphia for 1900 induced me to give increased attention to the operative correction of facial deformities. This subject had long interested me, and seemed an appropriate topic for the lectureship established by Thomas D. Mutter, the Philadelphia teacher, who had played such an important part in the early history of plastic surgery. Further study has shown me an ever widening field for this department of surgical endeavor, and given rise to a consequent surprise that so many sorely afflicted persons fail to realize the present possibilities of relief. Nature seems willing to aid the operator's efforts in an astonishing degree, if he use skill and exercise patience in showing her the way to exert her reparative forces.
