The smaller veins issue out from each lobule and
partially cross the interlobular space to join the
trunk of the vein - The lobules are thus <s>shewn<\s>
inextricably sewn together, as it were, by these minute
veins and it is impossible to separate the lobules
without tearing asunder multitudes of these inter=
=lacing veins -
Except for the connection between the lobules and
groups of lobules, which these small veins establish,
and for the loose connection which the cellular
tissue and the Bronchial vessels belonging to it afford,
and for the kind of inosculation between the
leaflets at the base of each lobule, each of these
portions of the lung would be entitled to be consi=

The drawing n Series A No 5 fig a shews, the
Bronchial tubes of the right lung of the sheep,
dissected out to their ultimate subdivisions. <s>In<\s>
In the preparation from which this drawing was taken, the Bronchial
artery was injected red.
Numerous erroneous statements have been
published respecting the final terminations of the
Bronchial tubes - In many works it is asserted
