About two years and eight months after the operation, he was admitted into the Hardwicke Hospital, labouring under fever of a low character, and died at the expiration of a fortnight, with suffocative catarrh. Autopsy – The original disease was found to have recurred in the parotid region, the surface of the gland being covered with a slight deposit of scirrhous structure; there was no malignant deposit in the chest or abdomen, but a tumour as large as a hen's egg was found resting on the upper surface of the right cerebral hemisphere, near the mesial line; it was covered by the dura mater, which was at one spot perforated by a small projecting portion of the tumour, and in this situation the parietal bone was also perforated. The tumour, which was nearly as firm as scirrhus, had by its pressure formed a cavity for itself in the brain, but there was no softening of the cerebral structure – December 4, 1852'.
