Excerpt from Fact Against Fiction, Vol. 1 of 2: The Habits and Treatment of Animals Practically Considered, Hydrophobia and Distemper, With Some Remarks on Darwin This work ought to have been published in the autumn of 1872. Delay arose from no fault of the author, hut highly detrimental to him from an author's point of view, as a season was thus lost at a time when the subject of his work, and matters therein discussed, were awakening a wide interest, and creating a demand for an explanation of the author's practical positions. With regard to one important subject treated of in this work, much mischievous inconvenience has arisen from my having deemed it a civil duty to reply to questions asked me in weekly papers. Upon the appearance of those "replies to correspondents" there arose much vituperation, of course from anonymous writers, having apparently little faith in the respectability of their real names. In the body of this work I have explained that even after vaccination a dog may have common distemper, either by contact or inoculation, a second time, but always, in that case, in a very mitigated form.
