    PLATE IV, Is a reprefentation of the left os innominatum, feparated from its fellow, and from the os facrum. The lacerated condition of the capfular ligament arifmg from the edge of the acetabulum is very well fhewn: acrofs the acetabulum a new formed firm flelhy fubftance is extended, which, it is probable, would have effec- tually prevented the return of the head of the bone into its focket, fuppofing the patient had recovered from his other injuries, and fubmitted to the taxis. A liberty has been taken with the third Plate, namely to reprefent the acetabulum, as it appeared after this flefhy fubftance was taken away and the bone denuded. In the original drawing that fubftance was depicted, but it ren- dered other parts of the fubjedt lefs diftindt; and therefore I made this alteration. B 2
