It seems to be in only themost perfect state, and whenbloodvessels have long exist-ed, that lymphatics are formedin false membranes. In recent lymph Schroeder v. d. Kolk has never succeeded in injecting any; andwe can only suppose that they are, like the bloodvessels, produced byoutgrowth from the lymphatics of the membrane with which they areconnected. Virchow* has twice seen nerve-fibres in adhesions. In one case, twofine nerve-fibres passed through an adhesion of the pleurae; in theother, a single fibre extended into, but not through, an adhesion be-tween the liver and diaphragm. The time in which these complete developments of lymph ma
