REPORTS OF CASES. 
The second night (December ist), the colicky pains ap- 
ared again, but they were not so severe. After that, I saw 
e animal December 2d, 4th, 5th, 8th and iotb, during 
inich time the pains were entirely absent, and continued to 
: absent for some ten days, during which time he was exer¬ 
ted and apparently in good health, so much so, that the 
vner concluded not to sell him as he first intended doing. 
On December 20th he was driven, warmed up somewhat, 
iring which time he was hit with a whip, which caused him 
make a sudden jump ; after reaching the stable he began 
breathe rapidly and show colicky pains. At 4:30 P. M., the 
vner telephoned me to that effect. I found him to have 
mptoms of congestion of the lungs, temperature rising to 
^3° F., associated with colicky pains. He ultimately con- 
lued to grow worse and symptoms of enteritis were present 
e next day, and from his condition I gave an unfavorable 
ognosis. Death took place December 22d, a short time be- 
rre midnight. 
On December 23d, the post mortem was held : the small 
nvels were inflamed, as was the peritoneum. The right lobe 
the liver showed fatty change. After removing the intes- 
les, a large growth of the size of a cabbage head, of hard 
'insistency, situated in the lumbar region towards the base 
the caecum, which on being removed proved to contain a 
rge abscess in its center communicating with the ileo-cascal 
tery and involving the right fasciculus of the great mesen- 
ry. The whole mass looked of a cancerous nature. 
Death was due to enteritis and peritonitis, both probably 
ought on primarily by the rupture of the suppurative 
leurism. And the question may be, did the sudden jump 
uring exercise cause a rupture of the aneurism, with a peri- 
initis and enteritis, and death ? 
TETANUS AND ANTITOXINE. 
By Jos. M. Good, B.Sc. V.S., Chattanooga, Tenn. 
I enclose reports of two cases of tetanus which I treated 
ith Gibier’s tetanus antitoxine : 
Case No. i. —Was called on November 6th to see a well¬ 
ed driving mare belonging to one of our prominent physi- 
ans. The mare was rather stiff in the posterior limbs ; when 
cited a little the membrana nictitans projected over the 
es. The mare was in harness at the time. The owner had 
>ticed the animal being sluggish two days before, while he de- 
cted some stiffness in her movement the previous da} 7 . Upon 
:ing questioned about nail prick of the feet, wounds, etc., the
