Case No. 4.—Roanish bay gelding, six years old, and a 
draught horse. Received a severe contused and lacerated wound 
on the outside of the off hind foot, from the wheel of a truck 
running over it. Extensive sloughing had taken place, carrying 
with it part of the cartilage; the wound healed readily, but a 
sinus formed, invading the cartilage. The remaining portion of 
the cartilage was removed and the patient sent to work between 
the seventh and eighth week. 
Case No. 5.—A bay mare ten years old, a trotter, had an ex¬ 
tensive quittor on the inside of the off hind leg, resulting from a 
punctured wound of three weeks standing; advised operation. It 
was performed in the hospital by Dr. Liautard. The wound 
healed in six weeks, and the mare was given a run in the country 
for three months, and then was put to fast work.
