Excerpt from Edinburgh Medical Journal, 1922, Vol. 28 In this issue of the Journal we commence the serial publication of the Transactions of the Medico-Chirurgical Society of Edinburgh and of the Edinburgh Obstetrical Society. Month by month our subscribers, including the members of the Societies, will receive with the Journal an instalment of the proceedings of each Society. To admit of the series of "Transactions" that have been issued by both these Societies over a long period of years being uninterrupted, arrangements have been made by which the sections of the Journal devoted to the proceedings of each Society can be detached and bound as a separate volume at the end of each year. For this purpose a separate title-page and other preliminary matter, together with an index, will be provided to the members of each Society, and we shall supply at the current market price a cloth case for binding the "Transactions" uniform with the preceding volumes. Every effort will be made to secure that monthly instalments include a complete report of the transactions of each meeting, but it may be well to point out to our readers that, for technical reasons, the provision made for binding may occasionally involve part of the proceedings of a meeting being carried over to the next number of the Journal. It is with deep regret we record the death of Dr William Paterson of Leith on 13th November last. Born and brought up as so many of the doctors and ministers Scotland have been in a rural parish (his parents resided at Carnwath, in the Upper Ward of Lanarkshire), he finished his school education in Edinburgh, and entered an Insurance Office to begin a business life.
