I was hurriedly sent for to see this horse, hut was unable to visit 
the horse until another twenty-four hours had passed by. Imagine 
my surprise to find my previous fine looking patient an object of 
pity and disgust; from the tip of the nose to the base of the tail, 
he was marked with ragged dirty edged ulcers, from which issued 
a bad odored discharge of a sebaceous character. Where these 
had not broken I found a large number of poorly defined eleva¬ 
tions of the skin, which would raise up and run their course in 
about thirty-six hours. Little heat was found present, prior to 
their bursting and discharging a very viscid and whitish exudate. 
These patches varied in size from a ten cent piece to five or six 
inches in diameter, though the latter usually represented several 
smaller ones united. They started at the point of the shoulder, 
spread to the neck, head, and then the limbs and back, and twenty- 
four hours had scarcely elapsed from the first appearance, before 
he was literally covered with them. The subcutaneous glandular 
structures seemed in perfect condition and these ulcerations wholly 
confined to the skin. Uncertain as to what I had to deal with, I 
decided to adopt the following form of treatment: Three times 
daily he received drachm doses of Donovan’s solution of arsenic, 
with three pills, each containing twenty grains of sulphate cin- 
clionidia. Externally a wash composed of the biborate and bicar¬ 
bonate of soda. Two days later there were no new ones apparent, 
and in four days all had run their course, and in less than a week 
there were left no traces of the diseased process, and he was placed 
at work, since when he has not shown any lameness or other dis¬ 
eased condition. Desirous of hearing from other practitioners who 
have had similar cases, and their diagnosis, I convey these records 
to the readers of the Review.
