PLATS III. 



Connective tissue covering part of the mylohyoid muscle of the frog, and estending from its posterior 

 portion, showing capillaries and nerve-fibres distributed to them. a. Capillary vessels, with their nerve- 

 fibres. 6 Bundles of fine dark bordered nerve-flbres. from which fine nerve-fibres may be traced to the 

 capmaries, as well as ro their distribution in the connective nssue, where they form networks ot 

 exceedingly f ne compound fibres. The engraving represents the specimen as it tnagnined only uu 

 diameters but the original drawing was taken trom it when placed under a much higher power, ine 

 stiecimen was mounted in 1863, and still (1871) demonstrates the points representea in the drawing.
