The case requires attention & if the recurrence of the fits
shall not be prevented they may change into a disease of a
worse kind, but to prevent this

Let his diet be light & cool. Some animal food every day
at dinner but of the lighter kinds & always in moderate
qty -- filling up w broth pudding & vegetables.

Supper light or none. No animal food, not even an egg.
At breakfast, tea, bread, & butter as usual, but the tea
must be weak & little butter. May take honey or
currant jelly if his stomach bear them.

For ordin. drink at meals, water or small beer but
rather the water. After dinner or supper may take a
few glasses wine or punch, but strictly avoid being into¬
xicated or at all heated by it. If he be strict in this the
quality of the liquor is of little consequence.

Much exercise & fresh air, moderate walking but
avoid fatigue, & moist ground & standing long in the
open air. Spend the greatest part of the forenoon in
good weather, on horseback.

Avoid cold. Be well cloathed, never shift from thicker
to thinner even in Summer. Avoid sitting or standg in
a stream of air, & all damp, especially in his cloaths.

Go to bed & rise betimes.

Only two remedies to propose. The one a pea issue
in the nape of the neck each side the Spine.
