THE GLANDERS. 45 



From whence the Glanders proceeds. 



the frontal cavities above the orbits of the eyes, 

 while every other part of the body appears to be 

 free from the disease. 



There are several sorts of diseases falsely called 

 the glanders. The Jirst may proceed from a 

 cold, which frequently affects the glands, and 

 produces swellings, or kernels, similar to those of 

 the glanders, except that they are not so closely 

 attached to the jaw-bone ; sometimes this disease 

 proceeds from some defect of the lungs being in 

 an ulcerated state, from which there is fre({uently 

 a Igfrge discharge of whitish matter coming away 

 in lumps. 



The second sort, in general, seizes a horse after 

 some long continued disease, that has been 

 brought on by hard labour: this likewise affects 

 the lungs, and the humour thus discharged from 

 the nostrils appears whitish, tinged with yellow. 



The third is a discharge from the strangles.
