Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Memorial of Charles Sumner Charles Sumner died at his residence, in Washington, at thirteen minutes before three o´clock on Wednesday afternoon, the eleventh day of March, 1874. He left his seat in the Senate Chamber for the last time on Tuesday afternoon, with a premonition of the sufferings which so soon ended in his death. About nine o´clock in the evening, he sent for his physician, Dr. Joseph Tabor Johnson, who administered the prescription of morphia, made by Dr. Brown-Sequard, but the pain increased. At twenty minutes past ten, the doctor announced that the usual reaction had not taken place, and that his patient was in serious danger. His pulse could scarcely be felt. Powerful restoratives were at once given, external applications made, and a consultation of physicians promptly called. Through the night, stimulants were administered, but at eight o´clock on Wednesday morning, it was felt that the patient was in a hopeless condition. About ten o´clock the stupor passed away, and Mr. Sumner recognized his friends, with a few words of greeting. He complained of great fatigue, but of no pain, except when he moved of his own strength. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
