Then he said suavely "A pathologist is a kind o' pathfinder. Comes from the Greek, I reckon: path logus skilled in finding noo paths to knowledge. See!" "If you ain't a walkin' dictionary!" "It comes nateral to me," Pete admitted modestly. He continued
He turned his back on them all and moved to the window. His very shoulders revealed the mental struggle he was going through. Morgan Pell's eyes, all this time, had never left his wife. He studied her countenance as a pathologist might that of a person thought to be insane, and Lucia almost gave way under his relentless analysis.

The cause of it is legion, for it embraces any influence which may detach the cell from its normal surroundings, "isolate it," as one pathologist expresses it.
Comparing, then, the several accounts which have come down to us, meagre though they are, it ought to be possible to arrive at some conclusions regarding the nature of the plague of the fourteenth century which, for the pathologist, would amount to certainties. The wonder is that such men as Dr.
The complications of the disease of which the order came to its death, would puzzle the most profound pathologist.
