Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Report on the Treatment of Acute and Chronic Diarrhoea, With Sub-Nitrate of Bismuth: At Camp Downey, Cal., And Finley Hospital, Washington, D. C
Sir -ia July, 1862, I had occasion to report to you the results of treatment of an epidemic diarrhoea at Camp Downey, California, which disease broke out among the tr00ps belonging to the First California Volunteers at the above post. Allusion was also made to a similar epidemic occurring at Camp Sumner and Presidio in July, 1861.
This paper having been submitted to your inspection in August, 1862, at Washington, with a view to publish the same, but through the press of business in your office connected with the immediate field of active operations in that vicinity, had been laid over for more leisure time until October, and the necessity of my leaving at this period, led me to ask its return, which request you kindly granted.
