had a kid in April, 1891 (which was sold when weaned), anc 
continued in milk up to the end of October. She had the rur 
of the farmyard and mixed freely with the cattle, which wen 
all healthy except for an attack of “ husk,” in the autumn 0 
1891. 
The illness commenced about the middle of November 
and at the end of a fortnight the animal, being utterly pros 
trated and refusing all food, was destroyed by order of th< 
owner, J. F. Egerton, Esq., Estate Office, Tatton Park, Knuts 
ford, who forwarded the lungs to me for examination, hi 
being of the opinion that it was tuberculosis. 
Unfortunately the abdominal viscera were not forwarded 
but Mr. Egerton remarked that “the liver contained whit' 
patches, which he thought were abscesses.” 
The goat was in a fat condition up to the time of illness 
but frequently went lame . 
The lungs were uniformly studded with grayish-yellov 
nodules, no portion of either lung or lobes being healthy 
There were no deposits on the pleura. The bronchial lym 
phatic glands were enormously enlarged and hardened. Th« 
mucous membrane of the bronchioles was in some part 
thickened ; the lumen was blocked with mucus and contains 
a few strongyles. 
I forwarded a portion of lung and lymphatic gland t< 
Professor M’Fadyean, who reported immediately that' th 
lymphatic glands contained tubercle bacilli, and a few day 
later, having examined the portion of lung, said—“ It show 
no lesions save those of tuberculosis. The little nodules ar 
typical tubercles, showing giant cells, caseation, and tubercl 
bacilli.” ’ j 
There is no evidence to show how this goat became ir 
lected .—Ibid
