PECCLIAR CASE OF LOCK-JAW-Heinrich
ElleubergeT, OF New York, a carpenter by trade.
while ar home for his dinner, the other day
noticed that il panied him 10 open his mouth
while eating, but thought little of at the time
AID finished his meal. At upper be tried to eat
some soup, but could not get the spoon into his
mouth. BY pouring e into q cup, however, he
managed to swallow little, and soon after re-
tired. He suffered from shooting pains aud con-
vulsioDs all night, and at noon the next dsy
they had increased TO such an extent that he was
carried TO a hospital. During all this tine be
Was GORGEOUS, and stated 70 the physician st
the hospital that be had no recollection OF
ever having received a cut or bruse OF any
kind A careful examination failed TO show
any mark 20 which the origin Of the dir
ease could be traced, and this fact, as well a.
the acute and sudden manner of the attack,
without any premOnitory symptoms whatever,
constitute the peculiar features of the case.
A distinguished surgeon in the Russian army in
the Crimea mentions only eight cases OF a like
nature in all his practice, and the surgeon OF
Napoleon L. mentions only one or two cases,
ana these old not come under his personal
observation. After the mans removal TO the
hospital, the muscles OF his face, back aud
abdomen became stiff, and his body and limbs
rigid, and in that condition he remains. One or
two OF bis lower teeth have been fractured, and
liquid nouTisbment is gwen him through a tube
inserted in this oTihce. Warm baths are admin
isterec, in which he remains an hour, and chic
reform IL then given, under the influence OF
which all the muscles relax. Many physicians
in New York have Investigated this strange
case, and the mans condition, though dam
gerOus, is not considered hopeless.
