In this genealogy the ages, unless otherwise stated, are as given in the 

 author's earlier publication (A./.O., Ivii), and refer apparently to 1902, 

 or sometimes perhaps rather earlier. The pedigree now presented in 

 Fig. 67 is the result of collating the published ones of 1904 and 1906., and 

 adding important new information that Dr. Freund has with the greatest 

 courtesy supplied to me in reply to questions. 



Dr. Freund's latest reply, dated June 14th, 1909, three days after the 

 delivery of the lecture, gives the result of his examination of the eight 

 children IV, 10 to 18 ; whilst in a letter of May 3rd he gave the present 



condition of the four siblings, V, 1 to 4, who were all normal seven years 

 ago, whilst three of them now show the typical condition. I reproduce 

 the names of all the members as given by Dr. Freund in order to 

 facilitate reference if still further information should be forthcoming in 

 future. I, 1 died young, had good eyes. I, 2, Wenzel Bienert, husband 

 of I, 1, also died young, between 1860 and 1870 ; is reported to have 

 had the family disease. II, 1, 2, 3, order of birth not recorded, died 

 before Karl (II, 4) ; all three had bad eyes, the eldest being quite 

 blind, no other details. II, 4, Karl Bienert (the elder), died in 1889, 

 age not given ; reported to have had the family disease ; his place in 



* Gen. VI, 1909, should be V 

 1902 and again in 1909. E. N.
