These could be reserved for a collection of,say, a million individuals, where there would no doubt be several individ-uals with the same Main Line formulae and with the same patterns; 152 Personal Identification but the presence or absence of the patterns alone would sufficiently dividethe groups in any collection yet contemplated, and would be amply suffi-cient for present needs. It must be remembered, too, (1) that all these. Figure 57. Diagram giving the location of thepatterns, as used in determining the Pattern for-mula.

The Palm of the Hand 153 comes from the examination of the ridge detail upon some selected portion ofthe surface, by which the positive identification or the reverse could be defi-nitely and finally determined in a few minutes. As above stated in several places, there are originally, or typically,six possible patterns on the palm of the h
