Fig 2, also a dissecting room cadaver ofunknown history, shows excessive glandular enlargement ofall the glands at the root of the lung, and, in addition, therewas enlargement of the tracheal and esophageal case was particularlv interesting; first, because itshowed two enlarged glands catching an artery betweenthemselves, and squeezing it till there remained nothing leftbut a fibrous thread; secondly, that both lungs were solidified, ACUTE LOBAR PNEUMONIA AND ANATOMY OF THE LUNGS 339.
