muscles became less, and the gait improved. The man left the
hospital at the end of two months, very satisfied with his
condition, although the tremor of the hands was still present
in a lessened degree.

(135) _External popliteal._--Wounded at Magersfontein, 250-300
yards. _Entry_, at the outer side of the thigh, 5 inches above
the lower extremity of the external condyle; _exit_, at the
inner margin of the adductors, at a level 4 inches higher in
the thigh. The track crossed behind the femur. Complete
peroneal motor paralysis and anaesthesia, except in the hinder
part of the region supplied by the mixed external saphenous.
Slight hyperaesthesia of the sole. Improving at the end of three
weeks, but paralysis still nearly complete.

(136) _External popliteal._--Wounded at Magersfontein. _Entry_,
5 inches below the highest part of the right iliac crest, on
outer aspect of hip; _exit_, at the posterior margin of the
gracilis, 2 inches from the perineum. Complete peroneal
paralysis followed, which rapidly improved, and on the
twenty-second day was nearly well.

(137) _Internal popliteal. Secondary anaesthesia_.--_Shell_
wounds of the right popliteal space. Wounded at Belmont.
Anaesthesia of the outer side of the calf, the leg and sole of
foot. No motor paralysis. As cicatrisation progressed, the
anaesthesia became more marked and was complete over the whole
of the external saphenous area.

(138) _Internal popliteal._--Wounded at Paardeberg. 400-500
yards. _Entry_, about the centre of the outer half of the
patella; _exit_, at the centre of the calf, about 2 inches from
the popliteal crease. Five days after the injury severe burning
pain developed in the sole. A fortnight later the pain was much
less severe, but varied in degree with the heat of the weather,
being worse when cool. At this date, however, rubbing became
comforting.

(139) _External popliteal._---Wounded at Magersfontein.
_Entry_, 1 inch above the upper end of the internal margin of
the patella; _exit_, at the margin of leg, just below the outer
tuberosity of the tibia. Complete peroneal paralysis followed
the injury. A month later the nerve was bared and found
slightly thickened. An improvement in cutaneous sensation
