Strychnine (obtained in the greatest purity from the Upas Tiente) has
been used successfully for this purpose. One of Dr. Bardesley's patients
in Lincolnshire, who was experiencing the return of sensation in his
paralyzed limbs, under the use of strychnine, asked if there was not
something _quick_ in the pills; _quick_ for _alive_ being still in use
in that part of England.
