6th, the medicine having sat well on his stomach these 3 days, Mr. C. ventured 

 to give him 15 drops of the lixivium; and, after having great pain in his loins and 

 penis, at night he voided several large bits. 



Early in the morning, after very great pain, on the 6th, he voided 3 large bits 

 of stone, and in the afternoon several more pieces came away ; one of which 

 was the largest yet voided. He took the solut. gum. Arab, this day, and no 

 lixivium ; and at night, being faint and fatigued with pain and want of rest, he 

 had an opiate and cordial julep. On the 7th he likewise took no lixivium, having 

 great pain and sickness at his stomach. His urine to-day appeared a little bloody, 

 and had a tough mucus in it, which sunk to the bottom of the pot, and was very 

 fetid. In the afternoon a large piece of stone stopt at the extremity of the penis ; 

 which, after endeavouring for 2 hours to press out with his fingers in vain, was 

 extracted, by enlarging the orifice. This stone weighed only Q-^ grs. though near 

 as large as a die ; and two which he voided before, nearly as large, and of a tri- 

 angular form, weighed, the one 8 grs. the other 7t grs. This day he took the 

 solut. gum. Arab, and at night had an opiate and cordial julep, to take a little of 

 now and then. 



On the 8th he took nothing ; and though he had a great deal of pain, and was 

 very weak, had a better appetite than any day since he began the course. He 

 complained of pain the morning on the Qth ; so took no medicine ; was very easy 

 the rest of the day, and passed some very small scales. On the 10th he took the 

 lixivium, and vvas pretty well. The 1 1 th had great pain, and was very sick ; and 

 ^Iso on the 12th : therefore he omitted the lixivium on the 13th; and, being very 

 faint and low, had a cordial julep. On the 14th he took the lixivium, and was 

 very easy every day till the 20th, when he complained his water made him smart ; 

 and also the 21st. 



The 22d he was very full of pain, and sick ; therefore on the 23d he took only 

 the solut. gum. Arab, was easy, and had a great deal of mucus come away with 

 several small scaly bits of stone in his urine; and also on the 24th and 23th. He 

 complained of great pain in the glans penis on the 26th; and his belly swelled, 

 and pitted just above the os pubis; and he voided some small bits in a great quan- 

 tity of mucus. On the 27 th a few little bits were voided, and he had no pain all 

 day. The 28th he had great pain, and made very little water ; but on the 29th 

 made a great deal of water. His belly was swelled, and he complained of great 

 pain in his loins. — He voided some small bits of stone on the 30th, which was the 

 last day he took the lixivium. 



The 1st of July he took the solut. gum. Arab, and was in great pain. On the 

 2d, being very faint, and wanting rest, he had a cordial julep and quieting draughty 

 and the 3d and 4th; which day he complained of great pain in his limbs; and on 

 the 5th had several loose stools; which however stopt on the next day.
