Excerpt from Quain’s Elements of Anatomy, Vol. 3 of 3: Part IV, Splanchnology
In the Seventh Edition, which was published in 1867, while the General Anatomy continued to be edited by Sharpey, the whole of the Descriptive and Visceral Anatomy was taken in hand by Dr. Allen Thomson, Professor of Anatomy in the University of Glasgow, and by Dr. John Cleland, then Professor in Galway, now the successor of Allen Thomson in Glasgow. This portion of the work was in great measure recast by Cleland, and many new figures from the facile pencil of Allen Thomson were added.
