The material contained in the abomasum is very finely com- 

 minuted, mixed with mucus, and shows well-marked digestive 

 changes. 



The entire material present in the stomach was carefully exam- 

 ined without finding any materials aside from those mentioned. 



The kidneys are large, perfectly normal in appearance, each 

 weighing approximately twelve ounces. Eight pyramids are pres- 

 ent in each organ. 



The internal genitals present nothing notable. 



The spleen is large ; it is attached by its internal surface to the 

 wall of the rumen. Approximate weight fourteen ounces. 



The liver has an approximate weight of five pounds. 



The lungs present no anatomical deviations ; the right presents 

 three lobes and the left two. 



The heart has an approximate weight of three pounds. It pre- 

 sents no anatomical peculiarities. 



The anatomical findings in this animal are practically identical 

 with those of a previous specimen which I dissected some time 

 ago. In this instance the animal was evidently a young adult, 

 probably four or five years old. The antlers showed absolutely 

 no indication of palmation, and presented four prongs on one side 

 and five on the other. The spread was not measured, but approxi- 

 mated about 70 cm. In coloration and general form this animal 

 closelv resembled the one described above.
