Experiment CVI. 
I opened the bellies qf feveral fowls 
near the anus, laid bare the inteftines, and 
pafl"ed ligatures round them. The refult 
was not always the fame. Sometimes the 
inflammation took place, and was fuc- 
ceeded by gangrene ; at other times, the ' 
gangrene had fcarcely begun to make its 
appearance, before the animal fella vidtim. 
In other cafes again, death did not take 
place before feveral hours had elapfed. 
When the inflammation was rapid, the 
gangrene aflumed a more malignant and 
deleterious chara&er. 
Experiment CVII. 
Two fowls died before either inflamma¬ 
tion or gangrene had made their appear¬ 
ance. *
