Bej^ond this point the cells of medullary and ofganglionic origin can not be distinguished from each other. It isprobable, however, that cells from both these sources advanceperipherally along the fibers of the mandibular nerve. CRANIAL SYMPATHETIC GANGLIA IN THE PIG 77 Oculomotor nerve The oculomotor nerve emerges from the wall of the mesen-cephalon by several slender rootlets arranged in a longitudinalseries (fig. 4, Oc). The proximal part of this nerve, in sagittalsections, therefore, appears distinctly fan-shaped. Throughout.
