URINARY ORGANS

• The urine passed the day after the accident was amber-colored, specific gravity 1038, somewhat strongly acid, throwing down on cooling a slightly flocculent sediment, amorphous under the microscope.

On subsequent cooling a precipitate again fell, and was found to consist of yellow halberts of uric acid mixed with fine granular matter. No precipitate was obtained on boiling. No albumen. There was large excess of urea. Mr. Stewart obtained good reactions of iodine, combined, not free, and of indican. A day later the specific gravity had fallen to 1025; the other actions were a before, 69.
