This disease generally commences like ordinary
caerrh, with chliness, assitude slight cough, and
oppression and tightness about the breast. In ma
ny cases the disease seems Of very serious char
acter; the person afflicted complains Of little
pain in the breast, a sense Of weight constrc
ton in the throat being the chief uneasiness felt in
that par the disease proceeds the oppression in
creases-the countenance indicates anxiety; and
respiration is attended with wheeling sound as
il the throat cloiied with viscid fluid, and
the voice assumes a hoarseness at first the cough
is dry, but copious secretion of transparent mu-
GUS something like the white Of egg takes
place. and with it a considerable abatement of the
cough; so long a. the symptoms preserve these APP
pearances the disease may be regarded as uncheck

disease the person afflicted experiences very
pain the forehead, which is in mos, instances
greatly aggravated by coughing. This disease, al
