my report, and do not wonder at it, for I consider it a remarka¬ 
ble work of nature; and although I was advised to report it by 
physicians, I have always objected, for the reason that I knew 
that some would think it untrue. A few months ago I reported 
it to Prof. Law, of Cornell University, for the benefit of his 
students. lie complimented and thanked me for it, also stating 
that he had known of similar cases of reproduction in other 
parts, where the periosteum was not destroyed. (How I again 
repeat, that I removed at the time and place that I stated in 
my report to you, the whole of the left inferior maxilla, from the 
second nipper back to its joint, and if further proof is requested, 
I will furnish the affidavit of the owner, Mr. Peter Swartout, of 
the town of Lodi, Seneca County, Hew York, and several others 
who saw it; also, if your Association wish to bear the expense, I 
will send the horse for your inspection.) I have only one cor¬ 
rection to make in my previous report. That is in regard to the 
teeth. I think I stated that no teeth had appeared, but I saw the 
animal on the 10th of this month (who by the way is now owned 
by Robert Faucett, of Lodi, H. Y.) and he has three malformed 
molar teeth upon that jaw. 
Respectfully yours,

Through inexplicable typographical errors, the article on the 
Etiology of Spavin, by our correspondent, ¥m. Bryden, Y.S., 
has been much disfigured in oui* June number, and we take this 
opportunity to correct it. 
Page 107, lines 5 and 11. “The causes of the new-born for¬ 
mation,” should read, “new bone formation.” Line 23 and 33, 
“ a recently sprained,” and “ recently strained,” should be “ re¬ 
cently spavined” ; and line 34 “ when detected,” should read, 
“when detached.”
