Description of the Contagious Typhus of the 

 Ox ; its Symptoms, Course, Progress, fyc. 



I have already written the history of the 

 typhus which affects the ox; I have shown 

 and dwelt upon the signs and characters of 

 typhus diseases generally, deducing therefrom 

 the denomination and definition of that of 

 the ox in particular ; finally, I have described 

 the causes which generate and diffuse it 

 abroad. 



Now, I must make known the various 

 phases and alterations to which the disease 

 is liable, and which, in the language of the 

 medical schools, are called its symptoms 

 and characteristics ; its progress or course ; 

 its prognosis ; its post-mortem appearances, 

 &c. &c. 



This examination, like those which have 

 preceded it, will afford new foundations for 

 medical practice.
