Ataxic Forms.—Medin described forms in which the patientsshowed ataxia in walking, with staggering or ataxic gaits, and othersbehaving like Friedreichs disease of acute onset. These forms areclosely allied to the bulbar and pontine types, and also may be oc-casioned by extension of the disease to the cerebellum. The latterstructure is almost always involved .to some extent in this disease. 6. Meningitic Forms.—Here meningeal symptoms occupy the fore-ground. Headache, vomiting, pain in the neck with stiffness, Kernigssign, stiffness of th
