Elements of pathological anatomy . terminate in all the tissues indiscriminately. The parts inwhich they are most abundantly found are the eye, ear, and nose, the externaland internal integuments, the voluntary and involuntary muscles, the lungs,liver, spleen, and kidney. The blood-vessels, bones, and fibrous textures aresparingly supplied, particularly the two last. The parts in which no nerveshave hitherto been discovered are the ligaments and tendons, the cellular sub-stance, the fibro-cartilages, and cartilages, the serous and synovial membranes,the humors of the eye, the epidermis, nails


Elements of pathological anatomy . terminate in all the tissues indiscriminately. The parts inwhich they are most abundantly found are the eye, ear, and nose, the externaland internal integuments, the voluntary and involuntary muscles, the lungs,liver, spleen, and kidney. The blood-vessels, bones, and fibrous textures aresparingly supplied, particularly the two last. The parts in which no nerveshave hitherto been discovered are the ligaments and tendons, the cellular sub-stance, the fibro-cartilages, and cartilages, the serous and synovial membranes,the humors of the eye, the epidermis, nails and hair, the lymphatic ganglions,and, lastly, the cerebro-spinal mass, the source and fountain of all sensation. There are three modes by wThich the nerves are connected with eachother, namely, by anastomosis, by plexus, and by ganglia. Of these, thefirst is generally found between branches of the same class of nerves,but occasionally between those of the opposite ones. Thus, the intercostal 374 NERVES AND THEIR GANGLIA.
