Dom Alphonse de Palacios. Avoit la rétine de l'oeil droit si enflamée qu'il ne pouvoit souffrir la moindre lueur de lumiere, il est conduit le 30 Juin 1731 chez Mr. Gendron qui juge le mal incurable, et ne se détermine qu'avec peine à essayer si ce mal pouroit estre guéri par un traitment trés long.
