It commences with a small hard tumour, Increasing slowly, and attended with acute shooting pains ; sooner or later ulceration sets in. The discharge is so acrid as to inflame the part with which It comes in contact. The place where cancer occurs assumes a purplish ap- pearance previous to its ulceration. Ulceration gives ease for a time, but the cancer penetrates deeper, and spreads wider, corrupting the stream of life, and reducing to the greatest debility, and often terminating in death.
