PLATE III. 



A specimen from a typhus patient, showing cedematous swelling 

 of both edges of the glottis, spreading into the cavity of the larynx, 

 and extending to the surrounding walls of the pharynx. The swollen 

 pharyngeal surface is of a mottled straw colour, from a deposit of 

 fibrin under the mucous membrane. The tongue having been cut off 

 at the base in removing the specimen, the swelling of the epiglottis 

 in case it had existed, had disappeared from the draining off of the 

 effusion.
