_December_ 7th. Mr. H----, AEt. 42. A large sat man, very subject to
gravelly complaints. After an attack in the usual manner, continued to
feel numbness in his lower limbs, and a sense of weight across his
loins. I directed infusum Digitalis to be given every six hours. Six
ounces made him sick, and he took no more. The next day his urine
increased, a good deal of sand passed with it, and he lost his
disagreeable feels, but the sickness did not entirely cease before the
fourth day from its commencement.
