whenever the Bronchial tube is of a sufficiently
large size to have an accompanying Pulmo=
=nary vein, this is placed (as universally) under=

No6 & No7 shew<s>s<\s> the relative positions which the pulmo=
=nary arteries and veins hold with reference
to the Bronchial tube, the relation also of the
Bronchial vessels is shewn in the <s>same<\s> <s>the<\s> diagram C No6.
The smaller Bronchial tubes and pulmonary
arteries are not accompanied by a corresponding
Pulmonary vein; as this is placed at a distance
being found in the interlobular fissure which
separates the lobules; but as the pulmonary veins
increase in size they each approach <s>a<\s> one of the larger
Bronchial tubes; and then run in apposition with its
under surface.
In following the course above described the Pul=
=monary artery simply continues to divide again
and again, giving off its branches on either
side precisely as the Bronchial tubes do. No
sort of capillary distribution to any of the sur=
=rounding tissues is made in any part of its course,
every portion of it reaches the ultimate leaflets of
the lungs, and it does not give any branches of
