Publication:-
Bradford published in May, 1870, when he was Chairman of the Court of Examiners of the Society of Apothecaries, “Remarks on an Address Delivered by the President of the Royal College of Physicians on 11th April, 1870.” It is a short pamphlet addressed to his fellow-examiners referring to the conferences then being held relative to the formation of a Conjoint Examining Board. It is a vigorous protest against the relegation of the Society of Apothecaries to a subordinate position.
