Note 852 — PART IX.—INORGANIC POISONS. (continued 3)
Reading edition
The gate-keeper of a graveyard at Bordeaux continually used the remnants of crosses, covered with lead paint, to replenish his fire; the chimney smoked; gradually paralysis of the extensors of the right wrist developed itself, and he suffered from colic and other signs of lead-poisoning.—Marmisse, Gaz. des Hôpit., No. 25, 1866.
