Chapter XLII: Of Compound Poisoning (4)

Dr. Pereira states that he is obliged to differ from me upon this
important subject for he “has several times obtained from the stomach
of subjects in the dissecting-room a liquor which reddened the salts
of iron” (Elements of Materia Medica, p. 1741). This fact, however,
does not exactly touch the question. The reddening must be occasioned,
not in the crude fluid, but with a substance obtained by the process
of analysis for detecting meconic acid in complex organic
mixtures,—otherwise the proposition in the text stands good.

These effects must not be confounded with those which poppy-juice has
been known to cause when spoiled. A whole family of Jews were attacked
with violent vomiting and purging, in consequence of partaking of a
decoction of poppy-heads, which had been kept four days in a hot
stove, and had consequently undergone decomposition. The usual
narcotism was not produced at all. (Rust’s Magazin, xxii. 484.)

two ounces of wine of opium, became drowsy at 6, was capable of being
roused at 9, vomited by emetics a liquid coloured with laudanum, and
was kept awake for the rest of the day. But at 7 P.M. having
previously had a cough and brown sputa from vinegar entering his
windpipe, he became gradually more and more insensible, till at last
he was quite comatose; and in this state he continued till his death
on the evening of the third day. On dissection nothing was found in
the brain or stomach attributable to opium.

Professor Amos of the London University, in criticizing in his
Lectures what I have said of this case in the first edition of the
present work, has accused me of misstating the evidence, and grounds
the charge on a Report by a professional Reporter, where no notice is
taken of the phial having been wrapped up in paper, or of the
bed-clothes having been pulled up to the chin, or of the arms being
crossed over the trunk [Lond. Med. Gazette, viii. 577]. I have
nevertheless thought it right to retain my original statement of the
evidence, as it was derived from what I still consider the best
authority,—the medical witness, who mentions the special fact on which
he founded the most important, indeed the only important professional
opinion in the case, and to which therefore his attention must have
been more pointedly turned than that of any Law-Reporter. The Report
alluded to by Professor Amos was afterwards published in the Medical
Gazette, viii. 759.

ungehinderter zu begehen, wenn sie die Leute damit eingeschläfert
haben; Hurenwirthinnen, um in ihren gemietheten Mägdchen alles Gefühl
der natürlichen Schaam zu ersticken; alte Hurer um junge Mägdchen zu
verführen; Missethäter um ihre Wächter sinnlos zu machen;
Ehebrecherinnen, um ihre Männer zu ruhigen Zuschauern ihrer
Schandthaten zu machen. For most of these purposes gin and whisky are
the instruments of villany in Britain; and of late, as already
mentioned, opium has been resorted to.

Instead of quoting special facts on the subject of poisoning with
Œnanthe, I have thought it better to give in the meantime a short
analysis of a long investigation, which I have from time to time made
on the subject, and which was read in the Royal Society of Edinburgh
last year. This paper will be published ere long; and the references
and experiments will then be supplied, which, if introduced here, will
lead to disproportionate details.

I have not altered the statement as to this point in the former
editions. Yet I strongly suspect that authors, who describe the spasm
which precedes death to continue as it were into the rigidity which
occurs after death, must have observed inaccurately. For in the
numerous experiments I have made and witnessed in animals, flaccidity
invariably took place at the time of death, and continued for a
moderate interval.
