Dr. Addington. Yes, Sir.

C. When was you called to him the first time?

Dr. A. On Saturday evening August the 10th.

C. In what condition did you find him?

Dr. A. He was in bed; and told me, that after drinking some gruel on Monday night, August the 5th, he had perceived an extraordinary grittiness in his mouth, attended with a very painful burning and pricking in his tongue, throat, stomach, and bowels, and with sickness and gripings; which symptoms had been relieved by fits of vomiting and purging.

C. Were those fits owing to any physic he had taken or to the gruel?

Dr. A. Not to any physic; they came on very soon after taking the gruel.

C. Had he taken no physic that day?

Dr. A. No.

C. Did he make any further complaints?
