One bolus was made of six gl.illlor c.lorof,l and four of opium. The neat was six grain of valiant I and only three of opium ; and the one on Sunday nig ht was in ale of tig h t Igatine of calomel, and one-half a grain of Nihon ; the was the bat bolus I made, and the others on the Friday and the Saturdsy. I mixed the last on Sunday myself. I had at :Ina Moe Leen with my muter a little morn than a year red a half. I took the cal mmei nut of the same bottle I lad token it out of on the Saturday anti the Friday, anal the opium out of the same bottle too. I put nothing else in the bless t !rept the calomel and opium, and • little coo. wave out of the same jar on the Friday and Saturday. I merle that bolus about tour o'clock in the afternoon. I made it on the same stone as the othtra. After I made it I wrapped it tip in a paper. and laid it on the shelf below where the opium was. I took it up stairs about nine o'clock. Ihiring part of the time I bad it en the shelf; I was in the shop. I took it up stairs ; it had the same appearance as when I left it. thought i did not Molt in the inside ; the paper was the seine. ‘Vhen I took it up stairs I laid It on the press in the kit hen, and was corning out, when I saw Mrs. AM sin in Mrs. Ilmlgson's mom, and I tweet into the kitchen again, and took the bolus cut and gave it to Mrs. Allison.

On the ether side, where the powder of opium anal corrosive sublimate were, was another bottle containing sugar of kid. I had been accustomed to compound medicines from about tad months after I went, and sometimes Hamilton coma pounded diem. I never mixrd opium and corrosive sublimate together, tut I am not quite sure that I never mixed ' , ohms and sugar of lead.
