Dr. Ruston. Principally in the proportions of calomel and antimony.
Couns. for the Pris. But they all agreed in giving calomel?
Dr. Ruston. All.
Couns. for the Pris. Did they agree in any other respect?
Dr. Ruston. Yes: they all gave cathartics, and during the eruptive fever treated their patients in the anti-phlogistic method.
Couns. for the Pris. Were their patients under any restrictions in regard to diet?
Dr. Ruston. In general they were ordered to abstain from salt food, spirituous liquors, butter, oil, and such like.
Couns. for the Pris. You have given a very satisfactory account of these matters. Now give me leave to ask, whether you yourself practise inoculation?
Dr. Ruston. I do.
Couns. for the Pris. Do you prepare your patients?
