her six grains each of the calomel and antimonial powder. This 
was cleverly managed. 
21th . — The medicine has not operated. Give four grains more 
of each of the drugs, and endeavour to abstract more blood. 
25t/i . — It was impossible to bleed her again. The medicine 
has not operated. She is the most manageable of her kind : 
try to give her four grains of the farina of the croton nut. 
2 6th . — The medicine was given, and produced one pultaceous 
stool. She was also sick, and vomited a considerable quantity 
of tenacious, dark-waterloo-blue coloured matter. There was 
more than a pint of it. It seemed to be vitiated bile, mingled 
with mucus of more than usual density and tenacity. Give two 
grains of tartar emetic, as there may be more of this poison. 
27th . — The emetic was not given, for she will neither eat nor 
drink, nor longer be cheated. Mix it with a little tar, and rub 
t on her nose. 
2 St/i . — The medicine produced its effect, and she vomited 
more than a pint of tenacious matter, of a green colour, mixed 
with yellow. She was much exhausted, and lay as if she were 
dead : by degrees, however, she rallied, but continued very languid 
and weak. After that she was sick again, and vomited more 
bilious matter. She really looks more cheerful. Let her alone. 
30M.— She drunk a pint of milk this morning, but lies heav- 
ing and groaning worse than ever. She has had two very small 
motions, composed principally of bile. Try to give her four 
grains of calomel, and move her into a higher part of the garden. 
31sL — The weather has prevented her removal. The calomel 
has produced two bilious stools. Repeat it. 
Sept. 1st . — The medicine could not be given until this morn- 
ing. She had scarcely taken it before she turned away, and died 
without a struggle. The lungs were in various places and exten- 
sively hepatized ; in other parts they were emphysematous. The 
liver was in a state of decomposition; its softening amounting 
almost to pulpiness. The duodenum and the large intestines 
were loaded with bile. Not the slightest inflammation existed 
in the stomach, or any part of the intestinal canal. We must 
attend more to the commencement of these bilious complaints. 
The absence of all inflammation in the stomach and bowels shews 
that we may push our calomel to a great extent. Salivation was 
-commencing. 
VOMICiE IN THE LUNGS. 
1833, July 8th . — Sloth Bear. He has been a little dull 
for two or three days, and coughs. Give two grains each of 
■calomel and antimonial powder.
