"We earnestly recommend the eases related by Dr. Courtenay
to the perusal of such of our readers as are afflicted with the eom •
plaints which the author has made the subject of these observations.
Several instances arc adduced of the recsvery of perfect health from
states which were considered hopeless by practitioners of eminent
talents and very extensive experience. We entertain the highest
opinion of Dr. Courtenay's professional skill, and congratulate him
on his successful and judicious application to these severe and often
fatal diseases."--European Magazine.
