Smith, who was on duty at the time, noted that the larva did not move from A. m. to A. m., when it backed 3^ of an inch, remaining thus until A. M,, when it turned half way round in its tracks. The line from a. m. to 4 a. m. was all backed over, except in a small circle which was traveled in the normal manner. At a. m. the larva fell.
