      We can fairly reconcile this apparent lapse by observing, that M. Nelaton confounds the arteritic form of the affection with that supervening on ossified arteries; a circumstance first noticed by Cowper, the anatomist, but denied gravely by Pott, an author who is frequently quoted as countenancing the idea.
