The manner in which themesenchymal cell is transformed into an endothelial cell occursundoubtedly, as Huntington has suggested, by a mechanicaladaptation to the pressure of the fluid within the lymphaticcavity. This view is entirely in harmony with the conditionsobserved in the extra-embryonic area of the chick23 where the 23 At the last session of the American Association of Anatomists, December 27,1911, at Princeton, N.
