" at his rerurn, he brought his pack to 

 •' another gentleman's, fix miles diftance 

 " from his own. But, notwichftanding 

 this precaution, he loft fix or fevea 

 couple of dogs in a fortnight's time. 

 At length in February, Mr. bloyer tried 

 the experiment, the Dodlor had recom- 

 mended, upon two hounds that were 

 mad, and both very far gone ; they 

 lefufed food of all forts, particularly 

 '' fluids, Havered much, and had all the 

 fymptoms of a hydrophobia to a greac 

 degree *, that night he gave twelve 

 grains of turpeth mineral to each of 

 " the two dogs, which vomited and 

 purged them gently : twenty four hours 

 after this, he gave each twenty-four 

 grains •, and after the fame interval, 

 he gave forty-eight more to each : the 

 dogs falivated very much, and foon 

 after lapped warm milk ; at the end of 

 twenty-four hours more, he repeated 

 to one dog twenty-four grains more, 

 *' and omitted it to the other ; the dog 

 that took this laft dole, lay upon the 

 ground, falivated exrremely, was in 

 great agonies, and had all the fymp- 

 toms of a falivation raifed too quick ; 

 but got through it j the othex relapfed 

 ** and died.
