354 ON DROPSY CURED BY BLUE VITRIOL. 



Oct. 9th. The ship arrived safely in Liverpool harbour ; 

 and on the 15th, I saw the patient in good health, employed 

 as a waiter in a tavern. 



From the success of the above medicine in this and other 

 cases I have heard of, I am of opinion it will succeed in all 

 dropsies that are not owing to a fixed cause, such as scir- 

 rhosities of the liver, spleen, mesentery, &c, and which, of 

 course, will require a different treatment.
