Opis

On this case Doctor Hesselius has inscribed nothing more than the words, -Harman's Report, - and a simple reference to his own extraordinary Essay on -The Interior Sense, and the Conditions of the Opening thereof.- The reference is to Vol. I., Section 317, Note ZA. The note to which reference is thus made, simply says: -There are two accounts of the remarkable case of the Honourable Mr. Justice Harbottle, one furnished to me by Mrs. Trimmer, of Tunbridge Wells (June, 1805); the other at a much later date, by Anthony Harman, Esq. I much prefer the former; in the first place, because it is minute and detailed, and written, it seems to me, with more caution and knowledge; and in the next, because the letters from Dr. Hedstone, which are embodied in it, furnish matter of the highest value to a right apprehension of the nature of the case.
