of the Cavities which constitute the Stomach of the Whale. 101 
whale tribe does not form this substance, more than the fat 
of the horse produces tallow. These facts may be afterwards 
explained by an examination of the digestive organs of the 
physeter, when an anatomist shall have an opportunity of 
examining them. 
These are enquiries which do not belong to the present 
Paper, as it is only intended to add some facts to those already 
laid before the Society, and in a future communication I hope 
still further to increase their number.
