The Haversian canals near the marrow cavity are larger than those near the periosteum. In fact, those next to the marrow cavity become gradually enlarged by absorption of the concentric lamellse, until finally they are fused with the marrow cavity. Each Haversian canal con- tains a blood-vessel, one or two lymphatics, and a variable amount of marrow tissue. These canals open both into the marrow cavity and on the outer surface into the osteogenetic layer of the periosteum, and they form the means by which the latter remains in continuity with the marrow. Each canal is surrounded
