It appears clearly that his disease has
depended very entirely upon a weakness of the
alimentary canal.

Although not yet quite recovered it is
much mended, and seems as if in a little time
it would be entirely cured.

To favour this a Sea Voyage is likely to
be of great service, but if this cannot be conti¬
nued, moderate Land journies, taken if possible
daily will probably answer the purpose.

For the same purpose I would recom¬
mend a diet of Milk and farinacea, but the
milk must not be plain Cows milk, but
a good Cows milk mixed always with an equal
part of thin water gruel, and the mixture
very well sweetened with sugar Of this

milk with well leavened bread, Rice, Sago, or
Barley, he should take several times a day, but
never much at one time. For some variety he
may take at times some Beef tea, or Chicken
broth, with bread or some of the farinacea which
have been separately boiled. Any solid animal
food he should not take till his digestion be¬
comes stronger, neither till that happens
should he use any freedom with garden things

His ordinary and almost only drink
should be Toast water.

In case of returns of either Vomiting
or Purging he may take moderately of an opiate
but should avoid as much as possible any habit
of that kind.

The only medicine I can advise is that
prescribed on other page.
