In this hand, while A and B are simple to understand,each opening to the outer margin, with a value of 5, the relations of C and The Palm of the Hand 147 D are very unusual, and might admit of more than one Line C occasionally disappears, with its delta, and there is but one deltahere for the two lines, it seems easiest to assume that the missing deltas isc, and that, consequently. Line C is also wanting. Granting this, the oneremaining delta is delta d, and Line D swings around the entire C region,. Figure 50. Palm print with the formula: C. where nothing is happening, and terminates between the ring and middlefingers with a value of 9. The complete formula, with this interpretation,runs Figure 54. The unusual thing about this palm, which strikes the eyeat once, is the termination of Line A in the carpal delta (giving the value of2 to this line). The formula is 148 Personal Identification
