Footnotes

[1]. For this statement see an article in Lippincott’s Magazine, March, 1874.

[2]. The folds of peritoneum containing remains of the hypogastric arteries will be called throughout by the name of the umbilical ligaments.

[3]. The presence of a great amount of adipose tissue throughout, in Eng, was very noticeable as contrasted with the emaciated appearance of the tissues in Chang.

[4]. Before the septum was known to exist, the band was opened from behind in the presence of the Fellows of the College (Feb. 18th, 1874). The exact relations of the septum could not at that time be determined. Figs. [8], [9], and [10] are taken from studies of the parts made the day after the meeting.

[5]. I desire to return thanks to Dr. T. H. Andrews and Dr. J. W. White, Jr., for important assistance rendered in preparing the notes of the autopsy.
