Ovum; 16 x 12: x TOMI. 
Dr. Burns, Memphis, Tenn. 
The specimen, apparently normal, is filled with a mass of 
dense magma reticulé. Serial sections failed to show even a 
remnant of an embryo. ‘The structure of the chorion and 
villi is normal, possibly a little cedematous. No blood-vessels 
are present. 
No. 302. 
Ovum, 25 x 20 x I5 mm.; embryo, 4 mm. 
Professor Brodel. 
The ovum is apparently normal, being covered with irregu- 
lar villi. Sections show, however, that the villi are fibrous, 
with remnants of blood-vessels within them. The syncytium 
is very active and is imbedded in a reticular mass of mucus 
rich in leucocytes and pus.
