veftels. The inteftine occupied the red of this bag j 
and at the bottom BE was contained the tefticle, 
which confequently had never taken the way of the 
ring to come out of the belly, as it ufually does ; 
but having palled on one fide, it had gradually pulhed 
out the aponeurojis of the mufculus obliquus externus ; 
and the inteftine having follow’d it, and broke the 
true lamina of the peritonaeum , they had in concert 
formed this elongation. At leaft this is the moft

larity. That the tefticles are originally in the belly, 
is a fad fufficiently known. I have difleded foetus’s, 
in which I found them therein near the bladder. 
It is pretty common to feel them in the rings in 
children j and I have found them there even in lads 
of upwards of twenty years old.

Janaux, a batchelor of 48 years of age, by trade a 
cloth -worker of St. Owen de Longpaon, a rupture 
with a double herniary fack, the firft of which was 
formed by the expanfton of the aponeurofis of the 
obliquus externus , as in the preceding obfervation, 
excepting that this expanfton was only on the out- 
ward fide, that the ring was in its ufual place, that 
the bottom of the bag formed by this expanfton had 
fome empty fpaces, where the expanfton was want- 
ing. In a word, the bag was neither as complete, 
nor as thick as that of the foregoing obfervation j but
