Their afferents are from the posterior part of the csecum and the root of the vermiform process. Their efferents pass to the main ileo-colic glands. The Lymph Glands of the Colon, according to Jamieson and Dobson, may be considered as forming four groups, epicolic, paracolic, intermediate, and main. The Epicolic Glands are small nodules which lie in the appendices epiploicas and in relation with the wall of the gut. The paracolic glands lie along the medial borders ^coiicgiand of the ascending and descending colon, the iliac parts of the colon ; along the upper border of the transverse colon, and on the mesenteric border of the pelvic colon. The intermedi- ate glands lie along the branches of the colic arteries and the main groups are situated around the stems from which the colic arteries arise. The lymph gathered by the lymph plexuses in the walls of the gut passes through one or more of the groups of glands, and that which issues from the main group, in association with the ileo-colic and middle colic arteries, enters the main mesenteric glands which surround the upper part of the superior mesenteric artery. It is then carried by the efferents of these glands to the common intestinal lymphatic trunk. The lymph from the descending, the iliac, and the pelvic parts of the colon passes to the intermediate groups of inferior mesenteric glands and thence, for the main part, t
