    PREFACE. Several cases and dissections are here detailed of Hydrocephalus, Cephalic Fever, Apoplexy and Epilepsy. 0 These are considered distinct and independent diseases, requiring a distinct and peculiar mode of treatment; yet when we attentively examine the phenomena and course of each, when we com¬ pare them, one with the other, and witness the morbid appearances exhibited in all, and the ef¬ fects of the same remedies, we shall be compel¬ led to acknowledge that these diseases are closely allied, and, in the true spirit of philosophical re- search, be disposed to allow that the morbid ac¬ tions which produce effects so alike, cannot, in their nature, be dissimilar.
