Read May 28, ^ N the year 1751, I prefented to the 
1767 * jl Royal Society an obfervation of a rup- 
ture, which had two hernial facs ; at prefen t, I have 
the honour to fend them the hiftory of another kind 
of rupture with a double fac, much more fallacious 
and dangerous than the former, lince I found myfelf 
deceived by it, after the experience of forty years. 
James Philip Chiquet, aged 65 years, of the Parilh 
of St. Vivien at Rouen, was admitted into our hofpi- 
tal on the 24th of January 1767. 
The account, which be gave of himfelf, was* 
that he had been accuftomed to a rupture, which he 
had not been able to reduce for a fortnight part, and, 
that lince eight days he had been feized with a vo- 
miting, and was incapable of taking any nourilh- 
ment.
