An Essay On The Nature And Cure Of Scrofulous Disorders PDF Download

Excerpt from An Essay on the Nature and Cure of Scrofulous Disorders: Commonly Called the King's Evil By following the course recommended by Mr. Morley I have been instrumental in curing a great many persons in this country of this horrible disease. And although many may treat with contempt so simple a remedy for so stubborn a malady, yet I solemnly believe, with the blessing of God, it will cure most cases of scrofula, if those afflicted will with patience and perseverance pursue the course marked out in this little work. As purgatives I have used either manna and conserve of roses or ten grains each of jalap and cream of Tartar, also senna and manna, and as a purifier of the system senna and salts. Antimony I have also used with great advantage, give half three times a week to children, and three drachms (in some cases as much as six drachms) a week to adults.
