The minutes of the previous meeting were read and confirmed. 
Mr. Wm. Leather then exhibited the brains of a horse, of which he gave 
the following description :— 
The subject was a grey cart gelding, eight years of age, in moderate 
condition; had been at work in Liverpool about twelve months. He 
was at bis usual work on the 22nd of last December, and was brought to 
our infirmary on the 23rd. 
Symptoms .—Pulse 50, of medium strength, respiration normal, temp. 
103° F.; a swelling in the right orbit, which completely closed the eye. 
The left eye was natural. On approaching him from the right side he 
would turn away, as if afraid of its being touched. I carefully examined 
for some external mark, but failed to discover any. His appetite was 
moderately good. 
24th.—Symptoms unaltered. 
25th.—1 observed a discharge of a thick foetid character from his right 
nostril. There was also an increased secretion of saliva, which is seen 
to accompany sore throat, but he evinced no difficulty in swallowing. 
26th.—Pulse 62, and weaker ; temp. 104° F. ; appetite diminished. 
27th.—Pulse and temperature unaltered ; but on being approached 
from either side he would suddenly wheel round, and appear unsteady 
for a few minutes ; the discharge from the nostril had ceased.
