The Grip Not Il New Disease.
\ correspondent writes to the Baltimore
Sun: In recent number of your jour
nal mention was made of the grip being
epidemic in England in 1888. | find that
the disease was known and by its present
name of La Grippe at a much earlier
period. Littrc, in his French Dictionary"
quotes Bownct, a Swiss naturalist of the
eighteenth century, as saying: You have
perhaps heard of these bad epidemic colds,
to which the French have given the name
la Grippe in truth a very significant
name A quotation is also given from
Noltaire bearing the date of 1,6S, to this
effect: LA Grippe in its journey round
the world, has visited our Siberia (mean-
ing his chateau of Ferney, in SwitzerlanD
and taken some hold on my old ana
wretched person" An article in LA
Grande Encyclopedia" mentions that still
earlier, in 1880, La Grippe" had 5000
victims in Rome 1t is also stated that, at
least since the eighteenth century, the dis
ease has come from Russia and has spread
thence south and west The same author
ity gives convincing proof of its CON
tagious character
The French word grippe" from the
verb 'griprei seize stealthily and
suddenly, as the cat does the mouse
seems to be Il most appropriate name for
this disease. The expression, III est
grippe" meaning "he is afflicted with the
grip" is both laconic and suggestive.
Oberlin, Ohio. J. r. WIGHTMAN
By some authorities the grip is sup
posed to have been identical with the
plague which prevailed in Florence in the
fourteenth century at the period described
by Boccaccio in the Dccameron
