APPENDIX. 



PEDIGREE CHARTS OF THE 89 FAMILIES STUDIED ; AND DESCRIPTIVE LEGENDS. 



DESCRIPTION OF FIGURES. 



The figures are pedigree charts of the families studied. In these charts the 

 earlier generations are placed above, the younger ones below. Square symbols 

 represent males ; circles females. Fraternities of full brothers and sisters are 

 connected by a horizontal line lying above the symbols. The longer vertical 

 lines connect parents with the fraternity of their offspring. 



Most of the symbols are marked to indicate the probable zygotic constitu- 

 tion of their temperaments. A 7 indicates normal temperament (i. e., e 2 C 2 ); 

 X indicates lack of knowledge concerning temperament; d. inf., died in infancy; 

 d. yg., died young; A, alcoholic; E, epileptic; F, feeble-minded; I, insane; 

 W, wanderer. Underscoring implies that the individual was in an institution. 

 The index ($Sr) refers to the propositus. A narrow black band on upper part 

 of symbol implies that the exciting factor is simplex; a broad band, exciting 

 factor duplex. A narrow black band in lower part of symbol means cheerful 

 factor simplex; a broad black band, cheerful factor nulliplex, or entirely 

 absent. Thus, a wholly black figure implies exciting factor duplex and cheer- 

 ful factor nulliplex; or, the individual is a manic-depressive. The broken 

 band implies the probability of a simplex cheerful factor without clear corre- 

 sponding somatic manifestations.
