_December_ 27th. Mr. B----, of H----, AEt. 55. Symptoms of hydrothorax,
at first obscurely, afterwards more distinctly marked. Many things
were tried, but the squill alone gave relief. At length this failed.
About the third month of the disease, a grain of pulv. Digital. was
ordered to be taken night and morning. This produced the happiest
effects. In _March_ following he had some slight symptoms of relapse,
which were soon removed by the same medicine, and he now enjoys good
health. For a more particular narrative see case the first,
communicated by Mr. Yonge.
