The Twelfth Chapter 



Of Mr. BART LETT'S Book 



UPON THE 



DISEASES of HORSES, 



Being this author's àoBrine of the Glanders^ which 

 is tranjlated by the Sieur la Fojfe into French 

 in this work. 



' I H E caufe and feat of the glanders has 

 -*• till lately been fo imperfectly handled, 

 and fo little underftood by the writers on this di- 

 ftemper, that it is no wonder it ihould be rank- 

 ed among the incurables : but a new light 

 having been thrown on this whole affair by the 

 ftudy of M. la Foffe, the King of France's Far- 

 rier, who has been at the pains to trace out, 

 and difcover by diffections, the fource and caufe 

 of this diforder ; we hope the method he 

 has propofed, with fome further experiments 

 and improvements, will foon bring to a certain- 

 ty of cure (in moft cafes at leaft) a diftemper 

 fo dangerous to our horfes, and that hitherto 

 has eluded the force of art.
