Abstract
“THERE is something common to all tumour malignancies, which I take to be cells feeding on the substance of blood to their own aggrandisement, instead of metabolising it, storing it, or transmitting it to an ulterior end. But that risk arises in various ways. In all cases there must be an unfortunate occurrence of a number of factors, of which one may be prerogative in one case, another prerogative in another ”(p. 83).
