TUBERCULATED LUNGS, LIVER, AND SPLEEN. 551 
1 2th. — More lively, but the cough is worse. P. digital, gr. x, 
et p. antim. gr. v, morning and night. 
13 th. — The cough seems to be a sympathetic one, and de- 
pendent on an affection of the liver. The stools contain a great 
quantity of bile, mingled with mucus and little fecal matter. 
Give two grains each of calomel and antimonial powder on each 
alternate day. 
14 th. — The medicine has operated well ; the feces, pultaceous, 
have more of their natural appearance, with little bile. Pause 
for a day or two. 
1 6th. — The cough is more urgent, and his appetite and spirits 
are declining. Small doses of antimonial powder were adminis- 
tered. The digitalis could no longer be given. He gradually 
drooped, and died on the 12th of August, and rather unexpect- 
edly. The liver exhibited marks of former inflammation ; but 
the mischief was in the lungs, one of which was excavated by 
an immense vomica. The case was a deceptive one throughout.
