In his famous lectures [7] Painlevé investigates general solutions of algebraic differential equations which depend algebraically on some of arbitrary constants. Although his discussions are beyond our understanding, the rigorous and accurate interpretation to make his intuition true would be possible. Successful accomplishments have been done by some authors, for example, Kimura [1], Umemura [8, 9]. From differential algebraic viewpoint in [5] the author introduces the notion of rational dependence on arbitrary constants of general solutions of algebraic differential equations, and in [6] clarifies the relation between it and the notion of strong normality. Here we aim at generalizing to higher order case the result in [4] that in the first order case solutions of equations depend algebraically on those of equations free from moving singularities which are determined uniquely as the closest ones to the given. Part of our result can be seen in [7].
