Without taking this uncertainty into account, we cannot conclude that a hospital with a measure rate that is higher or lower than the group rate is truly performing at a worse or better rate than the group. Statisticians use confidence intervals to account for this uncertainty.

    THE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PATHOLOGY VOLK IDC, SUPPLEMENT I933 WHOLE No. 54 FRANK BURR MALLORY AND THE PATHOLOGICAL DEPART- MENT OF THE BOSTON CITY HOSPITAL * TIxOMY IYm, M.D. The history of a successful institution is often the history of a man. This is particularly true of the pathological department of the Boston City Hospital. The hospital was dedicated and opened in i864 for the treatment of acute and chronic diseases. Dr. Charles E. Swan is referred to as pathologist in connection with the dedicatory exercses, but is not mentioned in the annual report for I864. Like many of his succes- sors Dr. Swan evidently used the position as a stepping-stone to appointment on the clinical staff, becoming physian to outpatients in i868. Dr. S. G. Webber was appointed pathologist in I870 and Dr. William P. Bowles in i873. The dead house and autopsy room were located on the east side of Albany Street in a part of the boiler house, near the location of the new Mallory Institute. Complaint was made in I870, "now that Albany Street has become so great and important a thorough- fare," that the carrying of bodies across the street, not at first ob- jectionable, had become so. In I871 improvements were made in the boiler house and a morgue was established, not only for those dying in the hospital, but also "for the reception and identification of the unknown dead found elsewhere." Record is especially made in i878 of the appointment of Dr. E. G. Cutler as pathologist. In i88o it is interesting to read that "through the liberality of the City Government the Superintendent's office at the hospital has been connected by telephone with police headquarters." In i88i Dr.
