In extreme or fatal cases, like changes are found in the pons, medulla,centrum ovale and cortex but the ganglion cells seldom or never undergosuch destruction as is a constant finding in the cord segments chieflyaffected. This disease, like epidemic cerebrospinal meningitis, is a general infectionI showing a peculiar elective affinity for the brain and cord and exerting itspathogenic effects p
