EXPERIMENT VI. 
Richard Edwards, the original subject of experiment, was 
again immersed in the cold bath, of the temperature of 40°, 
and remained in it three quarters of an hour. His heat pre- 
viously was 97 0 ; his pulse 90 in the minute. The mercury 
fell to 92 0 , was stationary for a few minutes, and then mounted, 
though, as usual, with no regularity. In twenty-two minutes 
it stood at 96° ; it then began to decline, and in twenty-three 
minutes more had sunk to 94 0 . Being exposed as usual to 
the wind, the mercury sunk as usual, and he shivered vio- 
lently. In the warm bath at 96° his shiverings continued se- 
veral minutes, his heat remaining at 90 and 91 0 . In seven mi- 
nutes the mercury began to rise fast, and five minutes after 
was at 96°.
