When a wen commences from the membrana adiposa, its substance is then chiefly an accumulation of a greasy matter resembling suet; and in some cases a considerable quantity of clear water has been found. Wens are usually contained in a cyst, or bagf, which incloses the whole substance; which increases in size in proportion as its contents increase. and this is the reason why wens and other encysted tumours cannot be cured, unless the cyst, or bag, be also destroyed. Wens are seldom suffered to grow on horses to any great size before they are extirpated; but, in the human body, these substances occasioning little or no pain, are suffered to go on till they occasion a great deformity, or become troublesome by their weight. But as owners of horses are naturally anxious to remove every deformity that may occur to the animal, they attempt to disperse these wens by embrocations and lotions, and if these do not succeed, recourse is had to caustic, or to the shorter and more certain mode of extirpation, the knife. Nevertheless, many draught-horses of little value may be seen troubled with wens, even sometimes upon their joints, without causing them to go lame, especially those that hang loose, and have their situation no deeper than the skin. Oxen and cows also are frequently troubled with large wens upon their knees, which might be removed if they proved of much inconvenience to the animal.
