In this instance, while the summit of the enlarged gland has beendestroyed by ulceration the cystic forms are distinctly seen in the intact portions of thefollicle. The neighboring glands of Lieberkiihn are well pushed apart by the swarm oflymphoid elements in the adenoid tissue of the mucosa; in the submucous connective tissuethese elements are most abundant in the vicinity of the muscle of Briicke and of the blood- • Spo p. -165 ft «7., and p. 563 ct seq., supra, Med.

In yet other solitary follicles in some of the same sections the ulceration has pene-trated more deeply, in some of them destroying a considerable portion of the cystic forms,the remains of which can, however, be distinctly recognized at the bottoms of the ulcers. These conditions can also be seen in many of the specimens of follicular ulceration ofthe colon collected during the civil war and preserved in the Museum. In perpendicularsections of such colons it will very often be found that the majority of the ulcers have quitedestroyed all the textures belonging to the solitary follicles; but between these fullyformed ulcers others will often be found in which more or less of the parenchyma of thefollicle has as yet escaped destruction, and in this the distorted gland
