6. Constant or violent vomiting, without any discharge of bile.
7. Obstinate costiveness, or a discharge of natural, or white stools; also quick, watery stools after taking drink.
8. A diarrhœa towards the close of the fever. I lost two patients, in 1797, with this symptom, who had exhibited, a few days before, signs of a recovery. Dr. Pinckard informed me, that it was generally attended with a fatal issue in the yellow fever of the West-Indies. Diemerbroeck declares, that “scarcely one in a hundred recovered, with this symptom, from the plague[6].”
9. A suppression of urine. It is most alarming when it is without pain.
10. A discharge of dark-coloured and bloody urine.
11. A cold, cool, dry, smooth, or shining skin.
12. The appearance of a yellow colour in the face on the first or second day of the fever.
13. The absence of pain, or a sudden cessation of it, with the common symptoms of great danger.
14. A disposition to faint upon a little motion, and fainting after losing but a few ounces of blood.
