s. There was great determination
to the head, the eyes were suffused, great drowsiness, and a
tendency to comae; however, these symptoms gave way in six
hours, in which time he was actively purged, the skin was made
moist, and a profuse perspiration kept up for twelve hours,
which left him perfectly tranquil and free from fever. From
this term I continued to give him small doses of calomel, till
his mouth was very slightly affected. He continued free from
fever from the morning of the 2d till the 7th; his appetite
good, his strength increasing, and every sign of health. On
that morning he had a second relapse, but by no means so
violent, though more embarrassing; he has not been well since,
and has suffered very much indeed. The treatment latterly has
been attention to the state of his bowels and diet. He has not
taken bark since his first relapse. I hope the change of air
and objects will serve him.

_Lord Ellenborough._ This affidavit is not even material to shew, that
Lord Cochrane was in possession of his brother's letter previous to the
morning of the 21st of February, so as to account for a connexion
existing in his mind between the note he on that morning received, and
the state of his brother's health, which should induce him immediately
on the receipt of it, to return home?

_Lord Cochrane._ I was not present at the trial, or those witnesses
would have been examined.

_Lord Ellenborough._ But those witnesses would not have gone to this
point, and your mind must have been drawn to it at the time you made
your affidavit, when you came to mention your brother's illness?

_Lord Cochrane._ My brother's affidavit states, that he wrote to me
early in the month, and I received his letter on the Friday previous to
the fraud.

_Lord Ellenborough._ That was capable of being most distinctly verified.

_Mr. Justice Bayley._ The original letter is not annexed to the
affidavit?

_Lord Cochrane._ It is not; I had no idea of bringing the letter of my
brother before a court of justice.
