McCready only about twice. But says the doctor, " I understood that after a number of days he recovered the use of speech, and that a gradual im- provement in the paralysis took place." But Dr. McCready has not clearly made out that this patient had ever been really speechless or paralytic. The 13th is from Dr. B. Duggan, and is just such a case as might have been furnished by the score from the records of any hospital for the reception of surgical patients. A stout, athletic Irishman had been ...knocked in the head, and could assign no cause for the pain su- pervening on a broken skull ; " but after being ques- tioned, he remembered having got a stroke of a slung- shot just fourteen days before the pain began. He died of suppuration of the brain, the marked symptoms, besides the headache, being, a rigor or chill, faltering of speech, convulsions, and towards the close, complete paralysis and coma." The 14th, 15th, and 16th, are a new series of cases contributed by Dr. Clark. The 14th was the case of a 810 medical gentleman, witli disease in the blood vessels at the base of the brain, which ultimately led to softening near the top of the medulla oblongata, and meningitis, or inflammation of the delicate investments of the brain at this part, and to the effusion of watery fluid in connec- tion with this inflammation.
