Abstract
DR. DORSEY complains that my interpretation of the sentence which I quoted from his letter is incompatible with the remainder of the paragraph from which it was taken. If this is so it is not my fault, for the paragraph in question contains the two following incompatible sentences: “the branches are not outgrowths from the trunks but ingrowths to it” (which is the sentence I quoted), and “a branch may grow in length and may branch”.
