Note 87 — FIFTH ANNUAL REPORT.

For my medical readers, I may suggest that perhaps the daily use of sulphate of quinine, in small doses, during the height of the epidemic, would seem to deserve trial as a prophylactic; subject, of course, to what each practitioner is best able to estimate—of personal peculiarity in the patient, forbidding the use of this drug.—J. S., 1854.
