Many points are still uncertain. The sensoryrelations wiU be sufficiently obvious from the figures. The table doesnot need any detailed explanation. It is merely a comparative collectionof the facts that have been stated in the preceding pages. We shallfind the value of this collocation of functions when we consider theeffects of transverse lesions of the cord at different levels. 250 SPINAL CORD. Fia.
