" If the Principles contained in these Essays were generally

AVender of Medicines, formerly a labourer in the
Doctor's garden, has lately advertised himself u at lid tri.
" ginal and only person who ever prepared the Fever nodes le
" the late Dr. James ;" but as it has been proved that this Meth.
tine was sold before he was born, and therefore that be could it
have been the" original Prepares," he now shifts his geotdia,,,a
declares " that he assisted in the preparation two yeah pun
" the Doctor's decease, the person who usually prepared Tiktr,
" being in a bad state of health, &c." and thus, by his ova thew.
ing, it appears that be was not " the only Peiparer." It happy; ti
however, that Mrs. Evans, here alluded to, who lived many pm
in the Doctor's family, and survived him, was, in truth, tle
person Who attended the fires and assisted in the process tlfl
death : a man was occasionally employed to pound the ingrodt;
which is all this pretender, Mr. Perrin, can hive dem, lid
which he calls " assisting in the preparation ;" so that aftette
gross falsehoods of being " the original and ;he only Nee
his pretensions resolve themselves into the mere quibble's('
" sisting in the preparation," because he pounded the infules,
But even UN. had been admitted to assist Mrs. Evans in kepit
of the process, he could not have obtained the secret of thsk.
dicine, for, according to 1)r. James's affidavit (publishedbikt

its obstinately resisting every course of medicine inscribed bllle
most eminent of the faculty here, and undergoing several woe
courses of salivation, and twice discharged from the Hospital Ail
little relief, would appear to be of the most invetecate nature.'
the spring of' last year my disorder bad got to such a Deal,'
nearly to put a period to my existence. I had a large uleersde
crown of my head, one on each arm, and my legs wort LSO
out in a frightful manner; my right was dreadfully pawdd
had been in a state of' ulceration for the last seven fears; 00
had also two nodes upon it, was very much discoloured,sad Pe
me such excruciating pain, particularly when warm in to/0
nearly to deprive me of rest; in this lamentable state, lane 3.

head and arms were soundly healed—soon after, the soresoool
leg healed also : leaving, however, considerable disci'
