To which is Subjoined, The proper Measures for Recovery and Relief; the Obligations we lie under to practise them are clearly suggested, and strongly enforced; intended for the Good of Mankind, by restoring Life to many Persons, who are erroneously supposed to be irretrievably drowned.

With an Appendix, containing some Methods for the Recovery of those who hang themselves, and of Children supposed to be born dead. By a physician.
