He felt much interest in this. class of diseases, as two of his relatives and namesakes had written on Asthma and Pulmonary Consumption, and he was determined to describe these diseases, as wel] as those of the Heart, in strict accordance with the pre- sent state of science. He has published several most interesting and distressing diseases of the heart, which were relieved by a new mode of treatment.](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b33028333_0010.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
