§ 7. Conclusions. 



I. The neuropathic constitution is transmitted from generation 

 to generation in the manner of a trait which is, in the Mendehan 

 sense, recessive to the normal condition. Rules of theoretical 

 expectation are accordingly as follows : 



a. Both parents being neuropathic, all children will be neuro- 

 pathic. 



b. One parent being normal, but with the neuropathic taint 

 from one grandparent, and the other parent being neuropathic.
