“Our object was to verify the assertions of several authors, but more
especially those of Fothergill, who asserts that digitalis occasions a
contraction of the small arteries; which he has noticed occurs in the
web of a frog’s foot. The experiments which I have made in connexion
with this fact have given negative results. With a view to observe this
action, I have often examined the webs of frogs’ feet for hours under
the microscope without succeeding in observing any change in the small
arteries.”--_Pflüger’s Archiv._, Vol. V., p. 168.
