The characteristics associated with delirium tremens were described by Dr G. H. Thomson, in giving evidence at the Magistrate’s Court at Christchurch on Wednesday during the hearing of a manslaughter diarge. He said that in eases of delirium tremens the patient first of all shows signs of excitability, manifested by tremor of the hand, and his senses are very alert. His condition may continue in that state for (|iiite a time; he then becomes a subject of hallucinations, which are conveyed to him by his senses of sight, hearing, smell etc. Thus he may hear sounds and see objects, usually of a Terrifying nature, which are purely arising from his imagination—a man may see devils or snakes or all sorts of weird objects, and his whole wish is to get away from them. He consequently struggles violently with any person attempting to restrain him, and in the ease under notice Dr Thomson said it took a. powerful doctor, two porters and two nurses to hold the man down. “11.8.’5” have just opened a splendid line of ladies all wool cashmere hose price 5/6 pair.
