The salts were alkaline chlorides, sulphates, and carbonates, with traces of phosphates, and of peroxide of iron. Lassaigne analysed lymph collected from the absorbents of the neck of a horse. He found in it, water 925-00, fibrin 3-30, albumen 57°36, chlorides of sodium and potassium, soda, and phosphate of lime 14°34. [The lymph collected from the absorbent vessels of the neck of a horse has been recently analysed by Nasse.
