identity of the foreign and severe form of the home disease, must be shown to be without foundation:--the detailed case of Patrick Geary, which occurred in the Westminster Hospital,--the fatal case of Mr. Wright, surgeon, 29, Berwick-street,--the cases, some of them fatal, which occurred at Port Glasgow, and regarding which, a special inquiry was instituted,--a case in Guy's Hospital, which caused some anxiety about the middle of July last,--a case reported in a medical periodical in August last, as having occurred in Ireland,--the fatal case, as reported in my first letter, of Martin M'Neal,[6]--a second case reported in a medical periodical in August,--a fatal case on the 12th of August last at Sunderland, reported upon to the Home Secretary by the mayor of that town,--three cases reported in No. 421 of THE LANCET,--a very remarkable case duly reported upon in September, from the Military Hospital at Stoke, near Davenport, and a case with thorough "congee stools," spasms, &c. (the details of which I may hereafter forward), which occurred at Winchester on the 22d of September, in the 19th Foot, in a man of regular habits, and of _the nature_ of which case the medical gentleman in charge had no doubt. [Footnote 6: The same Army Medical gentleman, who had been sent to Port Glasgow, was sent to Hull to report upon this case:--he arrived there too late, but having seen the details of the case, he admitted that he saw no reason to declare them different from those which occurred in the Indian cholera.] I quite agree with those who are of opinion, that in this and most other countries, cases may be every year met with exhibiting symptoms similar to those which have presented themselves in any one of the above. Instead of amusing us, when next writing upon cholera, with a quotation about small-pox from Rhazes, bearing nonsense upon the face of it, some of those who maintain the contagious property of Indian or any other cholera, may probably take the trouble to give the information on the above cases, so greatly required for the purpose of enlightening the public.
