English: Elephantiasis Arabum.
BY H. D. INGRAHAM, M.D., of Kennedy, New York. The accompanying photographs are those of Allen Stockwell, a resident of Poland, Chautauqua County, N.Y. He was born, where he now resides, April 22, 1838. His ancestors, both paternal and maternal, were hardy, rugged people, and his brothers and sisters-he being the eldest of seven children- have a like firm and healthy constitution. His own health has always been good. After he became old enough to labor, he worked in the lumber woods most of his time, making several trips down the Alleghany and Ohio Rivers each year. Like all other lumbermen, he worked hard, was much in the water, and drank a fair allowance of whisky; yet his health was good all this time, and he had no febrile symptoms. His leg commenced to enlarge in the spring of 1858, he being then twenty years of age. At that time he was on a raft lying in the Ohio River, at Cincinnati. The weather was warm, and he was in the water a good deal, removing lumber to the shore, yet he experienced no unusual symptoms, except the slow but gradual enlarge- ment of his leg |
