Finally the whole lobule is transformed into a discoloured, dry, hard, friable mass. The pleura of the corresponding parts is of course inflamed, being in some cases exceedingly thick, and covered with false membranes. In severer cases the greater part of one lung...

In one case these were symmetrical ulcerations of the mucous membrane of the gums and cheeks, of the front part of the tongue, of the hard and soft palate, and of the epiglottis.
