Showing a tuberculous family with apparently normal parents, both of whom come from tuberculous stocks. Of their 14 children only two are normal; six are consumptive; four died in infancy. The father was one of a family of 8 of whom only he and one other survived—and that other became insane, and his wife and children became paupers in consequence.
Showing insanity, consumption and infant mortality; also the transmission of insanity through the apparently normal.
Showing the survival of tuberculous stock by accession of strength from the normal. Only the illegitimate children and their non-sick father survive in this group.
Showing the case of a normal woman who had two consumptive husbands. Survival of defective strain by accession of strength from the normal.
Consumption in three generations. Male infant mortality. Query, transmission (?) through the normal.
