Correspondence seeking advice from Winthrop about his 23-week-old son, who was suffering from jaundice and a cough. Stone writes the course of treatment for the infant, on the advice of a Mrs. Hooker, had included barbaric bark boiled in beer with saffron twice daily, as well as turmeric. He also administered Winthrop's purging powder, and Stone asks if he should continue giving the powder and at what dose, and if there is any other medicines Winthrop would prescribe. |
