298 * OTTO L. MOHR 
1. The malformation of hands and feet found in Ole Kristian, 
the son of Karen Hansen of Reistad, is undoubtedly a hereditary one. 
2. The child must have inherited the deformity from his father. 
3. The malformation of Ole Kristian’s hands and feet is in all 
details the same as that which I have found in Hans Olsen, a point 
which in view of the considerations presented above is of decisive 
weight.» 
It may be added that Mr. Hans Olsen, according to the judgement 
later passed in the case was »found to be the father of Karen Hansen’s 
son Ole Kristian» and had to pay a sum in costs of proceedings to 
the State. |
