Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cholera, Its Causes, Prevention, and Cure: Showing the Inefficacy of Drug-Treatment, and the Superiority of the Water-Cure, in This Disease UN the evenings of the second and fourth of December, 1848, the author gave two lectures, in Clinton Hall, New York, on The Water Treatment as a Means of Prevention and Cure of Cholera. The day after the last lecture, it was publicly announced that the dread disease had already appeared at Quarantine, Staten Island, Opposite the city. The lectures were afterward written out at greater length, and have thus made three instead of two. In this form they are now given to the public. It will strike many, no doubt, as very strange, that the advocates of the old school practice are so at variance on the treatment of cholera. The writer hopes that this little work will do some good, in showing forth the fallacies of the old modes in their true light.
