We show how, in heterotic M theory, an M5-brane in the 11-dimensional bulk may end on an "M9-brane" boundary, the M5-brane boundary being a Yang-monopole 4-brane. This possibility suggests various novel 5-brane configurations of heterotic M theory, in particular, a static M5-brane suspended between the two M9-brane boundaries, for which we find the asymptotic heterotic supergravity solution.
