[Lecture notes, author unknown]

Fragments of what may be lecture notes. The first entry is dated Monday 9 January and concerns mollities ossium and the affect and symptoms of rachitis on bones. The second entry, 'Tuesday' concerns joints and synovial membranes. There then follows notes in a different hand on the birth and death rates in Denmark, Norway, Schlewig and Holstein and other duchies 1805-1806 and births and deaths 1808-1812. The notes then return to the original hand but are probably out of order as they cover Saturday 24 December to Tuesday 27 December. These notes concern fibrous cartilaginous carcinoma, cancer of the eye, breast cancer and other cancers and end with elephantiasis and leprosy. The notes are taken in the first person eg 'an intelligent Professor of Chemistry at Berlin informed me' (first page) and 'pitch ointment I have found most advantageous' (tenth page) but this may only be the literal transcribing of what was heard in a lecture. Passing references to both Dr Adams and Dr Baillie.

William Cullen's lectures on institutions etc

The volume consists of a number of sections. In the first section (possibly not all in Cullen's writing) the headings are: 'Atonics', 'Mennorrhagia','Fluor Albus', 'Abortus', 'Amenorrhea', 'Catarrhus', 'Dystenteria'. The second section is on various treatments which include blistering, Peruvian bark, stimulants etc. The third section is headed 'Of Fevers' but may not be entirely on that subject and includes the date 3rd January 1772.The fourth section is incomplete and appears to be about the physiology of muscles and fibres. After this there are what may be proofs of the printed contents pages from the 'Institutions of Medicine' with page number annotations. In amongst these are notes which may be for the sections of the book listed. At the rear of the volume are pages in Latin which have numbered sections I-XXXII and may therefore be a lecture plan. Described in the original manuscript catalogue as 'in his own hand'.

Illustration from the collection of Alexander Morison. Plate 72 of Morison’s 'The Physiognomy of Mental Diseases' (1840). Unsigned [Alexander Johnston].

'Portrait of E. W.; an unmarried female; aged 24.

This woman’s disorder was caused by terror.

She did not appear to understand what was said to her; never spoke; never moved from the position she was placed in, and asked for nothing – but took food when offered her.

Her habits were dirty; her appearance was slovenly; and her complexion sallow.

She had been for some months in this state when her portrait was taken. Strong laxative medicines were given to her; several blisters were applied to her head; an extensive eruption of pustules was produced, and continued for some time upon the back of her head and neck; and the douche was applied for a considerable number of times, but very little amendment was produced. She continued quite silent, except upon one occasion when a bible was accidentally put into her hand, and, to the surprise of those about her, she read aloud some verses, but without appearing to understand what she was reading; she also walked up and down a gallery very slowly; after which no further improvement took place.'

Illustration from the collection of Alexander Morison. Plate 35 of Morison’s 'The Physiognomy of Mental Diseases' (1840). Unsigned [François Rochard].

'Portrait of A. S., aged 40, a married female; she is full of fear on many subjects — fears that she is changed into another person — that her husband is coming to harm — that she cannot get a livelihood — that she is past all hope of salvation.

She is very noisy and restless, disturbing all around her, but sometimes ceases her cries for a moment, as if to listen to what is said; at times she appears to wish to speak, but stops short and says nothing.

This state had existed 18 months when her portrait was taken — it commenced on the sudden death of a favorite [sic]sister, who died in a state of delirium three days after delivery.

Cupping, Blisters, Anodynes, Tonics, &c. were tried without effect, and the occurrence of numerous boils was not attended with any benefit.'

'Portrait of T. J. D. aged 37, a widower.

This man previous to his disorder bore an excellent character; he was the father of a family, and was of studious and abstemious habits.

The propensity was so strong, that even before a number of persons he could not refrain from exposing his person and attempting to commit the crime; on account of his continually annoying other patients he was for some time kept secluded in his own room; previous to his being sent from home he had attempted to cut his throat, and had, in doing so, cut some of the nerves of his face, thereby producing a slight paralysis, which after some weeks disappeared.

The remedies employed in this case were purgatives, an emetic, a blister to the nape of the neck, the cold bath and camphor, of which eight grains were given three times a day for some weeks; under this treatment the disorder subsided, and he was cured within a year from its commencement.'

Illustration captioned 'Jonathan Rosling incipient general paralysis Surrey Co Asylum'

Illustration from the collection of Alexander Morison. Unsigned [Charles Gow]. Reproduced in Morison’s 'Outlines of Lectures' (1848) plate 19.

'Jonathan R: Aged thirty-two. formerly a carman, admitted into the Surrey Lunatic Asylum on the 18th June, 1847, labouring under an attack of partial insanity, complicated with general paralysis. In this patient, who was a very sober person, the disorder came on suddenly, about six months previously to the first portrait being taken. He did not manifest any well-marked delusions of grandeur, but used to say he would take possession of his brother's house and business, and also show considerable incoherency in his discourse. When admitted, he spoke with a slight hesitation, but could walk well: his memory was much impaired. The second portrait was taken about two months after the first, and at this time he had become very much more confused and incoherent; at times, he does not reply when spoken to. The remedies employed were, blisters behind the ears, and at the nape of the neck; but no benefit has been derived from them.'

'J. H., aged 50, a Gentleman’s Butler.

In this patient, who was a very sober person, the disorder came on suddenly six months before his portrait was taken, he did not exhibit any well-marked delusions of grandeur, but he used to swear, and stamp with his feet violently, saying, 'I shall be ruined.' He spoke with hesitation, but could walk pretty well; he had no recollection of past events; did not know his own name, where he came from, the day of the month, the month itself, or even the year; and he would cry like a child. He was under treatment about nine months: purgatives were given, he was bled, cupped, had leeches applied to his shaved head, two blisters applied to the nape of the neck, and a seton inserted in it. From none of these remedies was any benefit derived; the paralytic symptoms and the state of dementia gradually increased.'

Illustration captioned 'Steerman Hanwell catalepsy'

Illustration from the collection of Alexander Morison. Plate 79 of Morison’s 'The Physiognomy of Mental Diseases' (1840). Signed A J [Alexander Johnston].

'Portrait of E. S. aged 40, a tailor.

This patient has been ten years insane. Previous to his insanity he complained of head-ache, quarrelled with his friends, fell into habits of drunkenness, and frequenting the theatre, after which he was observed to stand for a long time together in theatrical attitudes; he then became melancholy, had great apparent debility, a feeble pulse, and torpid bowels, and he exhibited a tendency to Catalepsy. He would, for half an hour or longer, remain in any position he might be placed, such as that in which he is represented J during which time he could hold weights to the amount of 14 lbs. in his hand, the arm being placed forward from the body; he would take food when put to his mouth, but was generally an hour over each meal.

Soon after his admission into the asylum, he fell down on the floor and remained in a comatose state for some days, after which he never spoke for a month, and required to be fed for nearly three months, taking his food very slowly. In about six months after the fit of coma he began to walk, dragging very slowly one leg after the other, so that it was twenty minutes before he walked about eighty yards he also answered a few questions and occasionally read aloud; a relapse soon took place, and the same train of symptoms appeared, followed by a second improvement, during which he was able to walk and ride a little on an ass ; and on one occasion, his clothes being taken off, but against his will, he jumped into a pond, in which other patients were bathing, and swam about for several minutes; soon after this occurrence a third attack of coma took place, succeeded by the same train of cataleptic symptoms; this lasted for nearly seven months, at the end of which time he began to take his food, to get out of bed and dress himself, and to work a little in the garden, he also would sing a song, and read the newspapers aloud to other patients; he has continued in this improved state for some time : his mind is much enfeebled, and he is unable to take care of himself; he seldom speaks at all, and never asks questions. He works as a tailor, diligently if well supplied with tobacco, of which he is very fond, but as soon as his tobacco is expended he gives over work until he is supplied; now and then he will hold up one of his legs, and keep it in that position for a considerable time, this seems to be the only vestige of a cataleptic tendency left.

Purgatives — tonics— electricity — the douche — friction of the spine— the production of pustules — carbonate of iron in very large doses— blisters— sinapisms, &c. were tried extensively in this case, but without apparent benefit.'
