Stoll appears in these autopsies to have encounteredchiefly the catan^hal forms of the disease. The severer diphtheritic variety had in the mean-time been seen and described by various observers, among whom may be particularly men-tioned several English military surgeons, Cleghorn, Sir John Pringle and Donald Monro,fwhile others seem to have encountered chiefly some of the forms of follicular disease, tobe described
