It gives me the greatest satisfaction to renew, after five years' additional experience, the acknowledgment of my highest gratitude and esteem for Dr. Spurzheim; and to express my earnest wish that Britain may, by suitable encouragement, retain him permanently to herself. EDINBURGH, October, 1830. POSTSCRIPT TO THE AMERICAN EDITION. It is painful in no ordinary degree to speak now of Dr. Spurzheim, in the past tense; but since the third Edition of this work was prepared, he too has been numbered with the dead. He died at Boston, in Nov. 1832, while zealously engaged in communicating the invaluable truths of Phrenology to a people in every respect worthy of the doctrine and of the man who came among them to teach it. The citizens of Boston, and of the United States generally, have appreciated the talents and moral worth of this most excellent philosopher; and in expressing my heartfelt sorrow for his loss, I render a sincere tribute of respect and gratitude to them for the kindness with which they received him, and the honors with which they enshrined his mortal remains. I respectfully offer this work to their candid consideration, and will feel highly gratified if it shall meet with their approbation 23 CHARLOTTE SQUARE, EDINBURGH, NAMES AND ORDERS OF THE ORGANS ADOPTED BY DR.
