Extract

The following case is of interest on account of the successful localization of a cerebral disease, as well as from the fact that this is the first recorded case, so far as I am aware, where, in a South African Asylum, the aid of surgery has been invoked to alleviate a cerebral disease giving rise to mental aberration.
