water and Hungary water, the uninterrupted future 
was made on both perforations ; then dilating the 
common integuments of the belly, the inteftine was 
reduced, leaving the ends of the two threads at the 
fuperficies of the wound 5 and the external incifion 
was fewed up by the interrupted future, and com- 
mon dreflings of lint and bandage applied. A clyfter 
was given him immediately after the above operation, 
of oil of olives, the yolk of an egg, and warm 
water. 
4th. This day I found he had pafied in the moft 
excruciating pains, attended with continual vomit- 
ings : his fever very high, pulfe full and irregular : 
he was bled ten ounces this morning, and the like 
quantity this evening. The clyfters were continued 
thrice a day, with a decodtion of wormwood and 
camomile inftead of the warm water, and an ano- 
dyne mixture of mint-water, liquid laudanum, and 
fugar, to be taken occafionally ; alfo three ounces of 
fyrup of rhubarb, with an ounce of the frefh-drawn 
oil of fweet almonds, to be taken, a common fpoon- 
ful, every two hours. 
5th. The bleedings were continued twice this day, 
three ounces each time, and the clyfters were ad- 
min iftered as yefterday. His pulfe and fever very 
high ; he vomited fome excrements ; and towards 
night complained of a fingultus. 
6th. His bleedings and clyfters were continued as 
before. Finding his fingultus and vomiting fo very 
troublefome, I ordered him Dr. Huxham’s tindture 
of the bark $ which was taken, a tea-fpoonful, fix 
times a day, in a little mint- water ; which indeed 
greaty relieved him : his fingultus and vomiting be- 
came lefs frequent.
