covering the raised portion fell out and left the skin balled. There did not 

 ni'I'Mi- to beany localized elevation of temperature in the affected area, as fur 

 as could bo determined. 



Plaques. The eruption of plaques in tlio animal were very numerous, 

 viz., 82 in a period of 6 months, the first appeared on the GU> June and the 

 last of the above-mentioned series became visible on the 8th December, 27 

 made their appearance during the month of June, 42 in July, 7 in August, 

 8 in September, 2 in October and 1 each in November and December, respect- 

 ively. In addition, 11 of the plaques appeared on two occasions with a short 

 interval between each eruption, und one No. 70 on three occasions. 



Disseminated urticaria. The marked features in this case hare been (') 

 the large number of plaques which have appealed on the cutaneous surface 

 of the body : (if) the repeated eruptions of the disseminated form of urticaria 

 whiuh have persisted for long periods ; even after fading they have reappeared 

 within 21 hours, to again persist for another long spell. 



The great peculiarity of this eruption has been its fugitive nature, for 

 one day it affected the whole surface of the body, not already implicated by 

 existing plaques, the following the skin of any region might be the seat of the 

 eruption, and third it might be located to a totally different region, while 

 on the fourth it again became general in character. 



(Edemata. Again, in this case the alternate augmentation and diminu- 

 tion of the u'demata affecting the sheath and under-surface of the abdomen 

 have been especially noticeable. In the absence of any definable cause, the 

 swelling and oedema would become visible, increasing gradually in dimensions 

 for several days, then remaining stationary, decreasing suddenly or taking some 

 days in the process, until it finally disappeared, only to reappear in the course 

 of 24 hours or a few days and then pass through the same phases as above 

 described on several occasions. During the cold weather, this intermittent 

 oudeuiatous engorgement of the sheath and under-surface of the abdomen has 

 been noticed to be at a minimum, and except that the animal presents a 

 generally unhealthy appearance the slight oedema of the sheath is the only 

 symptom of Dourine apparent. 



Glands. The superficial inguinal glands became enlarged and hard on 

 the 26th June 1903, and a month later wore found to be still larger than nor- 

 mal, but softer in consistency. On August 18th, the glands were still slightly 

 enlarged, soft on manipulation but lobulated. The condition of the suhmaxil- 

 lary glands has remained unaltered except that they have slightly increased in 

 size. The right testicle became increased in dimension and tender to the touch 

 on July 15th, 1903, and on January 12th, 1904, it still remained larger than 

 the left, but the spermatic cords were not thickenod. 



Body temperature. During a period of 9 months, the maximum tempera- 

 ture recorded was 39 '7 C. and the minimum 36'5 C C. On five occasions only 

 has it exceeded normal limits, and then only for one reading in the evening, 

 generally followed by a low temperature on the following morning and a 

 fnsh eruption of either subcutaneous plaques or disseminated urticaria.
