It is now the size of a 5 shilling piece being circular, and has the following appearance, viz – that of a pallid and indolent ulcer, the surface is covered with a shining transparent fluid, and the surrounding skin is of a deep brown or livid colour, the edges retorted, thick, and exquisitely painful, the discharge is a whitish curdled matter, her constitution presents the scrofulous diathesis. The treatment consisted in the administration of a common saline purgative, and the ulcer washed twice a day, with sea salts water, from alongside, a common Poultice, made with oatmeal & sea water, was applied twice a day to the ulcer, under this treatment, the ulcer gradually healed, and on the 17th August, it was quite well, and she was discharged into her mess.
