Excerpt from Virginia Medical Monthly, Vol. 18: April, 1891-March, 1892

These are quite distinctly seen in the case I am about to report, especially upon the chart, where the elevation of temperature, corresponding to rapidly repeated convulsions, falls while temporary improvement is going on, and rises again during the final hours preceding death.

On November 10 I was called to see a young man in epi leptiform convulsions. He was about 35 years of age, of fair physique. The convulsions were recurring at intervals varying usually from twenty minutes to an hour, and had been doing so for about two days. The night before I saw him there had been one interval of two hours between the fits. I learned that he had his first convulsion during the previous December, another during the winter, a third in April, and then with somewhat increasing frequency lately, although there had been, somewhere during this period, an interval of five months. On some occasions there had been two fits within an hour, but at no time any continuous se ries like the present. On some occasions the fits had been succeeded by delirium. Early on the morning of the 11th, it was estimated that there had been at least thirty in the present series, probably more. The convulsions were of considerable severity. The first symptom was a dilatation of the pupils equal, or nearly so, on the two sides; then, for a few seconds, the face and head were twisted to the right, and the facial muscles were a little more distorted on that side than on the other. Then the convulsion became gen eral, with no perceptible difference in the two sides of the body. They lasted only a few moments, and gradually subsided.
