II. I send you here the Figure of the Livet of an Hydros ical Person He was ^ u*crabout 2.5 Years of Age, a Saldier in one of his Majesty’s Regiments hereia I own; who contrictea his Uutemper by dnniang much Water, when fcjMr.j.Brown.he could not stir from his Duty, andeatehing Cold at Nights in being upon ”• 17 “' t - 1 ~ 66 ‘the Guard. Hewas under the Care of our Physicians in St. Thomas’s Hos-pital for sume time, by whoso Directions his Swellings did by times abate ;out afterwards it was observ’d, that the Method which had been benefieial toothers had not here the like soccess,his Swellings returning upon him as before;so that there was nothing more now to be thought of but a Paracenthefes ■which Operation however we judg’d very Hazardous, by reason of thetime of the Year, and for that the Patient was very much Emaciated ; yet hebeing so much Swell’d that it was uneasy to him to lye in his Bed, heimportun’d us very osten, and wkh great earnestness, that the Operationmight be perforna’d. Hercupon a Paractnthefis , by the Physicians conscntand directions, was made by me Nov. 14. 1685. whereby we drew fromthe Patient about z Pints of Brinish Liquor, and within 4, Days aster asmuch more the next Morning he died, and his Death, as was found uponPiflection, was partly occasion’d by a Mortification upon his Scrotum andPenis. Upon Opening the Body, Ibelieve Itook out about 14 Quam ofWater; he had » large Inflammatio« upon the Peritonaunt ; all his otberiaward Parts not much diseffected, excepi the Liver, which now I amgoing to describe to you.

Its Magnitude was not extraordinary, but rather seem'd lese than usual. ^ t ,

But that which was very remarkable fandi thinkthe like Case scarce everobserv’d by any Author,) and feems much to confirm the Opinion of theLearned Malpighius, is th ; s; It consisted, in its Concave, Convex, and In-wardParts, ot Glanis, which fwith the Vestels ) made up the whole Sub-,stance thereof; these Glanis contain’d a Yellowish Icbor , like so manyPußula, and was I soppose part of the Bilious Humour lodg’d in these me, tho’ o’.herwisc the Liver, between the Glanis, was of its usoal Red-dilh Colour. In the Bladder of Gall, we found a löse Friable Stone, butotherwise notbing confiderable in that Part.
