Mr.. EDIToR:-It is scarcely worth
while to answer man who uses such
means as DIR EaSton, in bis communication
of the 9th, to our answer Of his first COM
munication.
All the answer is contained in the &C
knowicdcment and declaration of Mr.. and
Mrs. Woinschenck, in last weeks paper.
When man uses such language as he did,
knowing. too, that all his assertions were
based on testimony gotten by such means
as there is shown, be is not worthy that al
upright man should have any communion
ton with lin.
Anybody can see through his manmuvre-
ings; therefore, We will merely see how it
IS with the five points, and have his own
Judgment about his reputation.
ST point. See Mr.. and Mrs. Vein
schenck's declaration
DR.. Easton cut the gums of the third
child, being in commissions from teething,
as be declared, and ordered cold fernlenta-
tions around the head. He calls that no
treatment
2nd Mr.. Weinschenck called DR.. Simon,
and the latter prescribed the ca8o being so
urgent.
Sd. We admit that we have been mis-
taken. But what then, as we showed in
on. first answer, and he must know him.
self, that physicians nowhere in the world
are expected to wait longer than 80 min,
utes. Therefore, it is immaterial if he
came IS minutes past the time, or Is
hours. The girl says she saw him come
into the room, feel the pulse of the pa
tent, look at the medicine, go out again,
saying that he would see DR.. Simon, and
disappeared
Now, why did he not go to see DIR. 81
mon, as he was in duty bound towards the
patient, (it he thought he could do him
any good and towards us, for he neglected
to come in time, and ought to have apollo
glzed if he was gentleman?
On going out he felt so, as his parting
words show, but the second thought in
auce3 him not to do so, since he could
shift the responsibility from his shoulders.
Why d;i he not make the post morten,
examination, as it was expected lie would
do ty the parents and US?
Each following hour one of US went
over to Wenschenck's and enquired about
the DR.. and the examination, bu. we al
ways heard (the girl went to bed sick
that he had not made the examination nor
his appearance. Had We not a right to
suppose that he was not there? Why did
he not appoint another meeting? He was
sure the boy would die, and was glad to
avoid another meeting
4th. About preventative as we now un>
derstand he left there a bottle Of med
icine, from which all the children had to
take, but he did not insist upon separating
the we'll from the diseased-did not use
4 any means to cleanse the vitiated atmos-
/ phere, and all the children became infected.
Who can say that he used means TO pre-
vent the spreading of the disease? Medi>
cine-even quack medicine-will not do it,
Hahnemann 5 DELLA donna, agains. scarlet
fever, has exploded
! Now, about his staked reputation! We
do not deny that he has copied almost liz.
eralr, but lie has gwen some Of his own,
which is just the thing to give verdict
agains. him. Sometimes he changes a
word which is of importance, aud some
times he leaves out some words that are
material. That the reader can judge for
himself, We give his description in full, Of
the original, 90 much as is needed. The
words in italics are copied from Gaillard-
