8. The blood of a soldier on the third day of the disease had 

 a specific gravity of 1052. The specific gravity of the serum 

 was 1031, and of the clot 1080. 



In 1000 parts there were contained : 



Water .... 796-0 



Solid constituents . . . 2^4-0 



Fibrin . . . .2-5 



Blood-corpuscles . . 1067 



Solid residue of serum . 93*8 



Four days afterwards the specific gravity was 1050*5. The 

 specific gravity of the serum was 1028, and of the clot 

 1078. 



In 1000 parts there were contained : 



Water . . . .800 



Solid constituents . . .200 



Fibrin .... 2 



Blood-corpuscles . .108 



Solid residue of serum . . 90 



After an interval of ten days he was again bled. The 

 specific gravity was 1050. The specific gravity of the serum 

 was 1027, and of the clot 1078. 



In 1000 parts there were contained : 



Water .... 804-0 



Solid constituents . . . 196-0 



Fibrin . . . .3-5 



Blood-corpuscles . . 97*0 



Solid residue of serum . . 95-5 



A glance at the leading characters of the blood in these eight 

 cases, will show, that in these patients it was in a state of 

 hypinosis.

 disease has been analysed by Mr. Nicholson. 1 



The analyses were conducted on Andral and Gavarret's
