1. The following table exhibits the ages of three hundred and twenty-six
females, at which they began to menstruate. It is furnished me by Mr. Robertson,
in the North of England Medical and Surgical Journal.
To this list may be added the case related by Madame Boivin, in her account of
a new case of abortion. The subject of this case commenced to menstruate at seven
years of age, and did so regularly after her tenth year.

longevity; she is at present in perfect health.—American Journal of the Medical
Sciences for Feb. 1831.
