A Bout Six Years fince, a Paper of mine was read be- 
fore our Philofophical Society here in Duhlin, and 
after publiih'd in the Philofophical Tranfa£lions; Numk 
zoi. Wherein I gave an Account of a Stone of an ex- 
traordinary bignels, fpomaneoufly voided through the 
Vthera, by a Woman here in Dullin : And as a Corol- 
lary or Deduftion from this Hiftory, I there propofed 
the Extrad:ion of the Stone, by the gradual Dilatation 
of the Vrethra» or Neck of the Bladder, without any 
manner of Sefiion. as the moft fafe and eafy Way, and 
of moft general ufe, for the freeing thofeof theFemafe 
Sex from the Stone in the Bladder.
