Some certainly do,but the upward increase in size of the columns seems to be far toosmall for the accommodation of all the fibres that seem to pass to the same time we have, at present, no indication of the mode inwhich fibres leave these columns. At the medulla oblongata this column becomes filled with nerve-cells, the post-pyramidal nucleus, so called because the highest por-tion of this column has been termed the posterior pyramid of themedulla. It is also called the nucleus gracilis. The discovery thatthe fibres of this column are continuous with the nerve-roots investsthe post-pyramidal nucleus with considerable importance, since its.
