Tested twice before October 13, 1897. and five times afterwards, leads one to suspect 

 that the reaction of October 14 was due to some cause other than tuberculos's. This 

 13 borne out also by the post-mortem examination which after careful research revealed 

 no tuberculous lesions. This examination occurred May 21, 19U0.

Of the above five tests, two gave characteristic reactions. Her milk, feces and 

 urine were occasionally subjected to examination without any positive results. 



Durinf this time her appearance was healthful and she was in irood flesh. 



Her offsprings were College Pogis 2d, 101777, born November 18. 1892: Colietre Pocfis 

 3d, 1258112, born October 20, 1895; College Pogis 4th, 125896, born April 13, 1897, 

 which were subjected to the tuberculin test. None of them were found tuberculous. 



College Pogis was slaughtered April 18, 1899. The mediastinal gland was involved 

 and the" tuberculous material calcareous. White spots were found on the liver tissue. 

 Material taken from the mediastinal gland and injected into guinea ])igs produced 

 tuberculosis, but the material taken from the liver and introduced into guinea pigs 

 failed to produce tuberculosis.
