[L] The definite article is used because it is believed to be
complete, thanks to the scholarship and courtesy of Dr. Henry
M. Smith, of New York. To him, also, am I indebted for the
original text of _Pothos foet._ from the
_Correspondenzblatt_.
1837. _Correspondenzblatt der Hom. Aerzte_, January 18th, 2d part, No.
1, p. 6. Allentown, Pa. Hering, Humphreys, and Lingen.
1843. _Symptomus Kodex_, vol. 2, p. 392. Jahr. (Taken from the
_Correspondenzblatt_, and not correctly.) _Handbuch der Hom.
Arzneimittellehre_, vol. 3, p. 613. Noack and Trinks. (Taken from the
_Correspondenzblatt_, and incompletely.)
1847. _Manual of Hom. Mat. Met.--Jahr._ Translated by Curie, 2d ed.,
vol. 1, p. 462. London. (This is the first appearance of the Allentown
"abstract of symptoms" in English. _Curie_ credits his _data_ to some
"United States' Journal," probably meaning the _Correspondenzblatt_. His
translation is erroneous, and yet, up to date, it is the fullest source
of information for him who reads English only.)
1848. _New Manual or Symptomen Codex.--Jahr._ Translated by Hempel, vol.
2, p. 573. (This is a singularly incomplete translation from the German
_Kodex_, with no reference to any source. A literal copy of this
translation is all there is of _Pothos foet._ in the _Encyclopaedia_.
It omits the only symptom in the _Correspondenzblatt_ abstract that made
my application of this remedy not purely empirical.)
