Le Comte de X. Arrived at fifty years of age without ever having been ill. Muscular and with a fine strong constitution, he had passed a happy existence till, without suffering and without known cause, he was smitten with this terrible malady. Or again, to give another example, M. P. , having always enjoye...d good health, and with a fine constitution, retired from business at the age of forty-five, hoping to enjoy the large fortune he had GLOSSO-LABIO-LARYNGEAL PARALYSIS. 157 amassed. Then he was smitten without cause with this disease, of which no one suspected the gravity, and which was rapidly approaching its fatal termination when I was called to see him. Of a convivial nature ; loving life, wine, and good cheer, and accustomed to taste like an epicure every morsel that passed his lips, he wept because, although perpetually hungry and thirsty, he no longer had the power to swallow, and was maddened by his inability to speak; while he was conscious of his approaching end, and felt himself, as he said, dying of hunger.
