PITTsBURG, March 15th.-A special from
Webster, O., tells of a remarkable recovery
from an attack of hydrophobia The
afflicted person was an 11-year-old son of
Jacob Barkly, a well-to-do farmer Eight
years ago the boy was bitten by a dog
which later manifested signs of madness
and was killed. Nothing serious was
thought of the boys injury, and the wound
soon healed up.
Six weeks ago young Barkly came home
from school and complained of feeling un-
well. Hydrophobia, in IT'S most violent
form. soon developed. The attending
physicians looked upon the rabic poison as
self-limiting infection, and set about to
bridge the case over the active period of the
poison.
Large doses of aconite were given 10
blunt the sensuary nerves of the throat,
hydrate of chloral to obviate the restless
ness and produce sleep, and salicylate OF
soda TO counteract the rabic poison, if it de-
pended upon ferment for its action. The
paroxysms grew less frequent and it is now
two weeks since the patient showed any
signs of one. The physicians think COM
plete recovery is certain.
