Dr. C. E. Beevor and Victor Horsley. 



rabbit, of the methods of inoculation which he has introduced, that 

 we are indebted for the means of investigating with ease and certainty 

 the phenomena of this disease, which previously had been most 

 difficult and inconclusive. 



These experiments were performed at the Brown Institution, and I 

 must express my hearty thanks to Professor Horsley, F.R.S., for the 

 facilities and assistance he has so kindly afforded me, in this and other 

 investigations. 



A considerable portion of the cost of material for this investigation 

 was defrayed by a grant from the Association for the Advancement of 

 Medicine by Research.

" A Further Minute Analysis, by Electric Stimulation, of 

 the so-called Motor Region of the Cortex Cerebri in the

(Abstract.) 



The present research, of which the following is a brief abstract, is 

 in continuation of an investigation which we commenced two years 

 ago, the first part of which is about to be published in the ' Philo- 

 sophical Transactions.' 



In our former paper we described the results of a minute analysis, 

 obtained by electrical excitation, of that part of the cortex in which 

 Professor Ferrier had previously shown that the movements of the 

 upper limb were chiefly represented. 



In the present paper the same mode of analysis has been employed 

 for the investigation of the parts of the cortex grouped around the 

 before- mentioned area. 



Mode of Excitation. — The mode of excitation was the same, with a 

 slight alteration, as that which we previously adopted.
