The fields of vision were carefully taken by Mr. H. in daylight, in good gaslight, and in very dimgaslight, respectively, a 5 mm. square being used as atest in all the observations. The appended charts indicate that the fields, whichshowed considerable concentric contraction even by day- STATIONARY NIGHT-BLINDNESS. 165.
