2. Louis Fiquet, 23. Bitten 22nd April ; treated 

 at the Pasteur Institute, 23rd April to 10th May ; 

 died of rabies at the Necker Hospital, 4th June. 

 Five bites, two of them deep, round the right thumb. 

 They had been cauterised five hours after infliction. 

 The dog was examined by M. Causse, a veterinary 

 surgeon at Boulogne, and the dissection gave evi- 

 dence of rabies. Another person bitten at the same 

 time as Fiquet is now in good health. 



3. Annette Beaufort, 19. Licked on the hands, 

 which were chapped, on 1 5th April. The dog was 

 killed next day, examined, and declared to have 

 been rabid by M. Lachmann, a veterinary surgeon 



at Saint-Etienne. Treated at the Pasteur Institute, 

 20th April to 7th May. Died of rabies 14th 

 October. Two other persons bitten by the same 

 dog and treated at the Pasteur Institute are now in 

 good health. 



4. Julien Heniquet, 53. Bitten nth March, by 

 a dog that M. Jenvresse, veterinary surgeon at 

 Beaumont-sur-Oise, declared after dissection to have 

 been rabid. One bite had torn the lower lip, the 

 wound had been sutured ; three other wounds on 

 the nose. The wounds had not been cauterised. 

 Treated at the Pasteur Institute, 18th May to 5th 

 June. First symptoms of rabies showed themselves 

 4th June, before the treatment was finished ; died 

 7th June. As the disease had its onset during the 

 course of the inoculations, this case should be 

 excluded from the number of those who died of 

 rabies after treatment. 



5. Germain Segond, 7. Penetrating bite on the 

 bare right fore-arm, 23rd May. Cauterised an hour 

 later with a red-hot iron. Treated 26th May to 

 9th June ; died of rabies 22nd July. The dog's 

 bulb had been sent to the Pasteur Institute. A
