Note 14 — PART FIRST. OF INFLAMMATION. (continued 4)

[Of sixty-three cases recorded by Mr. Hodgson, in his work on the Diseases of the Arteries, fifty-six were noticed in the male, and seven only in the female. The reason of the more frequent occurrence of aneurism in men than in women is found in the circumstance of the former being more exposed to all sorts of violence and disease than the latter.—ED.]
