Excerpt from Outlines of a Course of Lectures on Medical Jurisprudence
The mode of conducting medico-legal investigations had attracted attention in France, from the time of Ambrose Paré, through the 17th century. French authors love to trace the rudiments of the science in their country from the 12th century, in the rules given in the Assizes of Jerusalem, for drawing up exemptions from certain civil and military duties, and in several subsequent ordonnances of their monarchs, for the inspection of wounds: enact ments from which we may trace the institution of the Chirurgiens du Chd'telet. In 1603, Henri IV. Authorized his physician to appoint persons, skilled in medicine and surgery, to make judicial inspections and reports in all ci ties and royal jurisdictions. The difficulty of carrying this into effect induced Louis XIV. To create, in 1692, he reditary royal physicians and surgeons, for the same pur pose, with various immunities and privileges; but their corruption and venality soon became notorious; yet the otfice was not suppressed until 1790.
