To give the Montgomery Lecture is a great honour for any American but perhaps most especially appreciated by one from Boston. It was in this first port of call for the transatlantic ship lines that so many waves of your countrymen disembarked, and took prominent places in the development of that country of opportunity across the seas. We have much in common.To give the Montgomery Lecture is also a most humbling experience. When I look over the distinguished names of those who have preceded me on this platform I can only wonder at my good fortunein being included among those who have been challenged to uphold the traditions that surround this Lectureship. After recovering from the pleasant surprise of being invited, my first effort was to acquaintmyselfwith the conditions of the lectureship. To this end I secured Dr. Somerville-Large's exquisite vignette, itself the 42nd Montgomery Lecture (Somerville-Large, 1960). I was delighted to read that the lecture was given by young investigators-although I was a little let dcwn when Dr. Somerville-Large subsequently added that this was in the earli4r'eafs of the lectureship. I noted with some sympathy that the Dean of the Medical School was in the habit of coercing students to attend the Lecture so that the hall would appear full.
