Upon examining the arms, both incisions appeared to be considerably inflamed, and looked just as is usual on the approach of the eruptive fever, which I had not the least doubt would soon happen.

On the 12th he complained of some pain in the right shoulder, and under the arm, which he said was stiff, and felt as if it was swelled. However, he continued perfectly well and free from all complaints to the 15th; the arms appearing as is usual when the distemper is attended with very few pustules; that is to say, not quite free from inflammation, but with a slight one.

The case being not so clear as could be wished, in order to be thoroughly satisfied, I inoculated him again, taking particular care to infect the part well.

On the 16th in the morning he took a dose of Inf. Sen. and Manna.

He continued quite well, and no itching or signs of infection appeared from the last inoculation.

CASE V.

May 3d.] A man of 44 was inoculated. I saw him every day, and it was easy to perceive that the infection had taken place very early.

On the 7th it appeared so forward, that I ventured to prognosticate he would have a very early and mild disorder, and no eruption.
