Thorax. There is no fluid in the pleural cavities.
The Lungs are large and are fully distended with air ; the apices are the seat of
emphysema. There are some patches on the visceral pleura at the base of the left lung, which
are thickened, but there are no adhesions. The lungs present three or four small extra-
vasations dotted over their surfaces, about 1/6th of an inch in diameter, and two small con-

Heart weighs 7 lbs. 10 ozs. The base is the seat of much yellow jelly, lying under
the visceral pericardium and there are several patches of extravasation, made up of a
number of small ones.. One patch is situated in the course of Left Coronary Artery, and
