S 1 R, 
Since my coming to this place I Iiave m^t with a ve- 
ry ftrange Cafe. An Iderical dilcontented Woman 
having a defire to dye, wholly rejedcd the help of Me- 
dicine, and within three Months being well nigh her 
end, there happened an Eruption of Blood out of the 
Glandula Lachrymalis of one of her Eyes, without any 
External Injury : There was an Evacuation of feij. of 
Blood within the fpace of Thirty Hours. About a 
Week after the fame Sluce was opened again, and Ihe 
bled till Ihe dyed. Now, I would fain know what 
Biood-Veflels come to that Gland, from which fuch a 
vaft quantity of Blood fliould be caft forth in fo Ihort 
a time.
