Connexion 'J he Head of the Humerus oppofite to the middle of the Con- 
of the Hu- cave p ar t: in the Epiphyfis of the Scapula, wa. four times perfo- 
inerus. rated, twice toward the infide, and twice toward the outfide \ 
whereinto were put two folded Wires, whofe Extremities were 
fix’d below at the forefaid inner and outer part, and into whofe 
Foldings a large Pin pafs’d from the Margin of the Scapula on the 
one fide, to that on the other, (to be pull’d out at pleafure, for 
fu pending of the Humerus. 
^ The Cubitus and Radius were join’d with the Humerus , thus: 
a>\ Radius ^he Cu ^ ms was perforated twice in the back part, at the beginning 
‘ b ' of the Olecranon on each fide; where two Extremities of Wires be- 
ing fix’d and riveted, they were brought through the upper part . 
of the faid Olecranon , and then twitted, till they came to the 
Humerus , which was perforated from the back-part, where the 
DeprefTion for receiving the Olecranon is, to the fore part above 
the Epiphyfis received by the Cubitus and Radius ; through which 
Holes made pretty large, the Wires thus twifted were pafsd, 
the one to the Radius on the outfide, and the other to the Ra- 
dius on the infide ; where they were introduc'd* and brought out 
at the back-part of the Cubitus below the Olecranon bn each fide, 
where their Extremities were riveted 2 j Inches below their in- 
fertion : By which means the flexion and Extenfion can be eafily 
fhewn, becaufe the Wires have fufficient fpace to move in their 
Pafiage through the Humerus , thefe Holes bang made bigger on 
purpofe, as is faid. 1 he lower Epiphyfis of both Cubitus and Ra- 
dius having been feparated by boiling, as 1 have formerly obferv’d, 
I was forc’d to perforate each of them below toward the Carpus , 
and pafs a Wire obliquely upward, whereby to fecure them : 
And becaufe the Radius is difrindf from the Cubitus below, there 
was a Wire paffed from the one to the other, and riveted at each 
'outfide. 
In joining the Bones of the Foot, I took fpecial care to hide 
Pol, 10 ' e the Wires, fo that none might appear to the Beholders. For do- 
ing whereof the Cubitus was twice perforated in the back part of ' 
the Epiphyfis , about 1 Inch above the Articulation with the Bone 
of the Carpus on the outfide, and the Radius in the infide and || 
and back-part, after the fame manner: Both which Perforafons 
were continued through the two Bones of the firtt Rank of the 
Carpus. Afterwards the External Bone was perforated - a third 
time ; all which run from above to below, to the finf, fecond, 
and third Bone of the fecond Rank. Which being done, two
