Ailanthus glandulosa

by

7. Three little boys smoked stems of ailanthus like cigars. They had giddiness, nausea, with retching and some vomiting; frequent watery dejections, expelled with great force; burning in stomach and bowels, colicky pains in bowels. The giddiness and nausea lasted off and on for 2 or 3 day (WILLIAMSON, N. Am. Journ. of Hom., x, 360.)

8. Dr. TRUE published an article in the Ecl. Medorrhinum Journ. Sept., 1875, relating alleged poisoning with bark in two children, aged. 4 and 6, with following symptoms:- Drowsiness and sleepiness; pulse slow and full, but regular; breathing natural; they would vomit during sleep, but without waking; could be roused by shaking, but then seemed sleepy only, soon going off again. (HEMPEL, op. cit.)

9. Local effects. – Reveil states that gardeners are obliged to protect their face and hands when trimming the trees, else they suffer from vesicular and even pustular eruptions. He also affirms that the resinous substance extracted from the bark by ether produces vesication when applied to the skin. Giraud applied to skin compresses saturated with infusion of bark, and found them produce a large number of small elevations, circumscribed, surrounded by a very small inflamed areola, and filled with a turbid liquid looking like pus. Dr. Lindsley observed a case in which a young lady, sleeping on a lounge by an open window in front of which was an ailanthus in full bloom, had upon her skin, wherever uncovered, a vesicular inflammation resembling the eruption caused by Rhus. He applied the juice of a freshly-broken twig of the tree to her arm, and it produced a copious eruption upon a surface much larger than the part touched (N. Amer. Journ. of Hom., xxx, 85, and Hempel, op. cit.).

Richard Hughes
Dr. Richard Hughes (1836-1902) was born in London, England. He received the title of M.R.C.S. (Eng.), in 1857 and L.R.C.P. (Edin.) in 1860. The title of M.D. was conferred upon him by the American College a few years later.

Hughes was a great writer and a scholar. He actively cooperated with Dr. T.F. Allen to compile his 'Encyclopedia' and rendered immeasurable aid to Dr. Dudgeon in translating Hahnemann's 'Materia Medica Pura' into English. In 1889 he was appointed an Editor of the 'British Homoeopathic Journal' and continued in that capacity until his demise. In 1876, Dr. Hughes was appointed as the Permanent Secretary of the Organization of the International Congress of Homoeopathy Physicians in Philadelphia. He also presided over the International Congress in London.
