CONSUMPTION

AND ALL LUNG

DISEASES.

By G. T. CONGREVE, Coombe Lodge, Peckham.

The following REMARKABLE CASE is selected from the NINTH SERIES, which have been appearing ONE EVERY WEEK IN THE WEEKLY PAPERS. A "HOPELESS CASE" of CONSUMPTION. Mr. EDWARD WAINSCOTT, of Hereford.

This patient, now living at 20, WYE STREET, HEREFORD, applied to me in July last. All the usual symptoms of confirmed Phthisis were present; in addition, blood was brought up in serious quantity, and swelling of the feet had commenced. He continued the use of my medicines, with liniment, etc. (as I believe) without intermission for four months. I received a letter from him in November as follows:

"DEAR SIR,-I am glad to say I have now been at my employment three weeks. Before I applied to you I was attended by four physicians. I was blistered, poulticed, and took a large quantity of medicine. They said, It was an hopeless case-that I was in deep Consumption-that my left lung was entirely gone, and my right greatly affected.' I was recommended to you by a young man whose case had been similar to my own. At that time I was so thin that people did not know When they came to see me they said, Ah! it won't be long before he is gone. But, praise God! I have risen again. Dear doctor, you will see a case like mine, No. XXXVII. in your book, only that I think mine was worse. I hope that you will make this known."

me.
