Footnotes

122:* The illustration, being identical with the above Figure, is omitted; the pressure of the hand is applied to the right instead of the left thigh, and the head is turned to the left. The character used in the second is pi (#), which is not found in any of our Chinese-English Dictionaries. In the writer's Vocabulary of Anatomical Terms, to be published shortly, it refers to the region of the stomach. The part to be pressed upon in the above Figure is pi (#), the thigh, which agrees with the illustrations.
