Gentlemen, Read Feb. 17, 1761. In a paper I lately laid before you, I endeavoured to demonstrate, that the Cicuta major, which, since the publication of Dr. Storke's work at Vienna, had been used medicinally in England, was the plant intended by that gentleman; and not the Cicuta aquatica, as had been suggested by some practitioners here. And Dr. Storke has removed every doubt, which could remain, by transmitting hither to Mr. Hudson, a very ingenious apothecary and botanist, some leaves of the Cicuta major, or common hemlock, which grew at Vienna, and is of the same species with the plant so denominated here. As Dr. Storke informs us, that, since the publication of his treatise, he has received letters from almost every part of Europe, confirming his good opinion of the virtues of the Cicuta, and as he is about to publish a second treatise upon the same subject, containing still more extraordinary relations of cures brought about, by administering that plant; there is no doubt therefore, but that endeavours will be made
