Excerpt from The Ophthalmoscope, Vol. 12: A Monthly Review of Current Ophthalmology; 1914
The body was that of a well-nourished man, presenting no external Signs of disease or injury beyond the condition of the right globe. This had been eviscerated, and the cavity of the shrunken globe was half full of thick gummy pus. There was no evidence of inflammation in the conjunctiva, cellular tissue of the orbit, or lids.
On opening the skull, the surface of both cerebral hemispheres was seen to be intensely injected and covered with a thin layer of greenish-yellow pus; these changes were more marked on the frontal lobes. On dislocating these lobes, their under surface was found to be thickly covered with Similar pus.
