neuritis in December, 1893. Recovery in twelve months, but vision was
much impaired. She remained well with the exception of occasional
headache until December, 1899. Then the severe headache returned. She
became ataxic and optic neuritis reappeared. In April, 1900, the
headache was much less and the patient felt much better, but she was
completely blind. (Six and a half years.)
21. A young woman, aged seventeen years. Headache, vomiting, and double
