'The ova were in the middle third of 
the oviduct, some in the pronuclear 
stage, and some in the stage of the 
first division. 
The ruptured follicles Were partially or 
completely distended. 
In the ovary G 1—2 there Were five 
degenerate follicles of -154 242 720 
mm. 3 
In the ovary G 3-5 there Were five 
degenerate follicles of -180 633 600 
mm. 3 
The sides to which the ovaries be- 
longed is uncertain.

' Most of the ova Were in the lower third 
of the oviduct in the morula stage, 
With not less than 14 cells. 
One ovum on the right side Was in the 
ovarian pouch, and was degenerated. 
One ovum on the left side was in the 
lower third of the oviduct in the 1- 
- cell stage, and was abnormal. 
In the right ovary Were six unruptured 
follicles of -071 064 000 mm. 3 , of 
which one was degenerate. 
In the left ovary were three normal 
unruptured follicles of -200 970 000

The ruptured follicles Were distended.

1 The ova were in the lower third of the 
oviduct in the morula stage, some of

The ruptured follicles Were distended. 
In the right ovary Were two normal 
unruptured follicles of -128 520 000 
mm. 3 
In the left ovary Were three normal 
unruptured follicles of -086,788,800
