_May_ 3d. Mrs. B----, AEt. 59. Ascites and anasarca, with strong
symptoms of diseased viscera. Infusum Digitalis was at first
prescribed, and presently removed the dropsy. She was then put upon
saline draughts and calomel. After some time she became feverish: the
fever proved intermittent, and was cured by the bark.
