was ail Attempt of Nature to fupply the Want of 
two regular Jejuna ; For we are to obferve, that 
if thefe Children had lived, each having its own 
proper Stomach, would probably have eaten a due 
Quantity of Food for its Suftenance ; and the Of- 
fice of the Stomachs might have been well enough 
performed ; but each requiring a feparate Syftem of 
Inteftines to difpofe naturally of the digefted Chyle, 
and this preternatural Conjunction happening be- 
tween them, the Jejuna of both were confufed to- 
gether 5 and having Room in the Abdomen , now 
large and common to both, thefe Parts of their 
Organizations, that ought to have grown into two 
Guts of a conliderable Length, being hindered from 
a regular Accretion, the joint growing Powers of 
both formed the Sack of Communication now be- 
fore you; which is proportionably capacious enough 
to anfwer the Purpofes of two natural Jejuna ; be- 
low which the reft of the Inteftines of each Child 
were fufficient to do their feveral Offices. 
In the lower Part of this Sacculus there was an 
Outlet on each Side, which were the Origins of 
their feparate Ilea : Thefe were in a good State, and 
regularly inferred each into its Coecum ; and this in 
each had its natural Appendicula ; thefe were regu- 
larly fucceeded by their Colons , and terminated by 
their proper Re ft a inteftina to their natural Out- 
lets.; with this Difference only, that the Colons 
were out of their natural Situation, and were con- 
voluted in each Child, by as narrow Portions of 
the Mefocolon, as any Part of the Ileum is by its 
Mefentery; and that as low as the going off of the 
Reftum .
