(1.) The radicle was slightly deflected from the cauterised side in one day (i.e. 24 h.); in three days it stood at 60° from the perpendicular; in four days at 90°; on the fifth day it was curved up about 40° above the horizon; so that it had passed through an angle of 130° in the five days, and this was the greatest amount of curvature observed.

(2.) In two days radicle slightly deflected; after seven days deflected 69° from the perpendicular and from the cauterised side; after eight days the angle amounted to nearly 90°.

(3.) After one day slight deflection, but the cauterised mark was so faint that the same side was again touched with caustic. In four days from the first touch deflection amounted to 78°, which in an additional day increased to 90°.

(4.) After two days slight deflection, which during the next three days certainly increased but never became great; the radicle did not grow well and died on the eighth day.

(5.) After two days very slight deflection; but this on the fourth day amounted to 56° from the perpendicular and from the cauterised side.

(6.) After three days doubtfully, but after four days certainly deflected from the cauterised side. On the fifth day deflection amounted to 45° from the perpendicular, and this on the seventh day increased to about 90°.

(7.) After two days slightly deflected; on the third day the deflection amounted to 25° from the perpendicular, and this did not afterwards increase.

(8.) After one day deflection distinct; on the third day it amounted to 44°, and on the fourth day to 72° from the perpendicular and the cauterised side.

(9.) After two days deflection slight, yet distinct; on the third day the tip was again touched on the same side with caustic and thus killed.

(10.) After one day slight deflection, which after six days increased to 50° from the perpendicular and the cauterised side.
