I have already explained that in the case of the lemurs, 

 although, provisionally, I prefer to view the presence of the 

 chromatin bodies in their blood as abnormal, yet I am quite pre- 

 pared to find, upon a larger number of such animals being ex- 

 amined, that these bodies may be of normal occurrence just as 

 they are considered to be in the cat.
