discoloration reaching its highest grade in the feet. The discoloration is diffuse ; only here and there can one distinguish fading, punctiform, reddish spots. These are made up of the minutest ecchyinoses, and because of their small size are not depicted in the illustration. A similar discoloration is also discernible in the dependent arms. The skin of the upper arms is pale, but below it becomes more and more livid, so that the hands and fingers show a markedly dirty violet color.

Such distribution of the postmortem lividity, when found in a body, by no means indicates that the deceased died as a result of hanging; it may also develop when a body is hung up. It merely indicates that the body was hanging for a long time. But from the degree of the development of this

There were no striking evidences of congestion or ecchymoses of the face. This is readily explicable because of the symmetric arrangement of the rope, which gave rise to a sudden, equable compression of the various vessels of the anterior part of the neck.
