plague. which devastated Europe from
the fourteenth to the sixteenth centuries,
the sweating sickness was a distinct dis
ease with its own peculiar symptoms. its
deadly virulence and the comparative
briefness of its fatal course in individual
cases. Death often resulted in four or
five hours, while the usual seizure lasted
not longer than twenty-four.
Five great vsitations are chronicled in
European annals in the years 1885, 1905.
1917. 1923 and 1861. The countries COM
prising the northeastern part of the con-

led on men of middle age in all walks of
life who were of full or corpufent habit.

being most severely swept. For these rea-
sons, perhaps, the scourge was worst felt
in England, Germany, Denmark. Holland,
Sweden and Norway. and around the
mouths or courses Of great rivers like the
Rhine. the Thames. the Eibe and the
Scheldt.
