I can therefore with much pleasure express my conviction thas Mir. Hewett, from his excellent abilities and great actainments is admirably qualifier to occupy the important position of Resident Officer to the Royal Free Hospital.

I have very great pleasure in teatifying to the high professional attainments of Surgeon Herrett. After serving in the Franco-Prussian war, he obtained frst place, Sept. 1875, in the Army Board Examination, which is one of the most severe tests of a medical gradu ue's abilities and professional knowledge. He also eerved at the same station with me at Halifax, N.S., and I consider him to be an officer of bigh melical attainments and proficiency

6, Harley Street, W., March 26, 1578. Mr. F. C. Hewett was well known to me some few years ago as a very promising young student at St. Bartholomew's Hospital; since that time his artne appointments and activity in Hygienic research appear to me to point him out as a gentleman well qualified for an appointment ae Assistant Professor at Netley, since in teaching and prosecuting physical inquiries he will be following the bent of his natural inclination, and probably will devote his entire energy to his work.
