CASE 1.—Private Daniel Burdickson, Co. I, 28th Colored Troops; age 19; was admitted Dec. 7, 1864. He was debilitated; he slept a great deal, and his mind was dull. About Jan. 3, 1865, his cough became very distressing and the sputasputum thick, mucous and occasionally bloody. He died on the 15th. At the post-mortem examination tubercles were found in both lungs and pleuritic adhesions on the left side.—L'Ouverture Hospital, Alexandria, Va.
