There is a condition below theaverage of health, in which even the normal process of repair is de-layed or arrested, and which effectually prevents both the union ofbone and of soft parts, while, on the other hand, excessive inflam-mation proves equally destructive to this process ; but this latter causeoperates by excess, and consequent imperfection of the process, ratherthan by the actual default of proliferation.
