TL;DR
It is demonstrated recently that the spinal nerves contain even more non-medullated than medullated fibers than previously thought, and it is not the authors' purpose to present a review of the literature on the vagus nerve, since this has been summarized recently by Molhant.

Nerves of different function which are described as innervating the viscera have a similar real and separate existence, and must be bound up with morphological differences so that a group of nerves of the same function must be capable of being grouped together under the same morphological laws of structure and distribution.

The largest spinal ganglia in large dogs were subjected to the pyridine-silver (modified (Cajal) technique, an account of which has already been published.

This paper proposes to compare structure and centres of origin as regards the cranial with the spinal nerves, more closely than the author was able to do at that time.
