show (3) that the section of the trunk taken next to the gan- 

 glion (dorsal branches excluded) contains more fibers than are 

 contained in a section taken further distal (columns j and k). 

 Further, Table I shows that the sum of the fibers in the trunk 

 and dorsal branches taken immediately distal to the ganglion is 

 always considerably greater than the sum of the fibers con- 

 tained in the ventral and dorsal roots just distal to the ganglion. 

 This fact of the excess of fibers in the trunk and branches is 

 especially presented in Table III.
