XIV. _Detail of_ MR. RICKMAN.

On inhaling about six quarts, the first altered feeling was a tingling

in the elbows not unlike the effect of a slight electric shock. Soon

afterwards, an involuntary and provoking dizziness as in drunkenness.

Towards the close of the inhalation, this symptom decreased; though

the nose was still involuntary held fast after the air-bag was

removed. The dose was probably an undercharge, as no extraordinary

sensation was felt more than half a minute after the inhalation.
