of death; a Faraeenthefis by tbe Pliyficians confent 
and dire(9:ions , was made by me the fGurteenth 
of November laft paft, whereby we drew from the Pa-* 
tient about 3 pints of Brinifh Liquor, and within 4 
days after as much more, the next day morning he 
dyes, and his death as was found upon difFediion, was 
partly occafioned by a mortification upon his Scrotum

This Operation was performed to the fatisfadion of
