Davy Crockett's Almanac, 1847 - Daring Adventures in the Back Woods; Wonderful Scenes in River Life; Manners of Warfare in the West; Feats on the Prairies, in Texas and Oregon #250485

As far as my experience goes, It's not well to eat too 'much bear's' fat When one's in a fever. Thar war a pashint at my house, who war very ill With the tipus fever, and wanted a ewet. We giv him a smart chance of whiskey every morning, an brought on the sweat by setting him to climb ing 'up a pine tree an sliding down agin. The whfmkey and the climbing brought en the sweat, and then We put drafts on his feet maid of aqua fortis, and sktmk's marrow, and that cured him.
