Introduction

Cobweb – that of the black spider found in barns, cellars, and dark places, being the one employed.

Provings

1. “The accounts of the action of cobweb being incorrect and various, I determined to ascertain (if possible) its correct operation by giving it to healthy persons. I found from these experiments that the operation of the web appeared to be principally on the arterial system; and perhaps in less time than any article previously known, the force and frequency of the pulse being uniformly reduced in some case 10, in others 15 strokes in a m., and in one case the pulse, from being strong and dull, became soft, small, and very compressible; all which operations took place within the space of 2 hours, after which time the pulse gradually regained its former force and frequency. This has been the only invariable effect I could observe, all others appearing but anomalous.” (Broughton, quoted by Dr. S. A. JONES, Amer. Observer, Jan. 1876.) 2. Dr. Webster gave 20 gr. to an old and infirm asthmatic. “Slight but pleasant delirium was produced, and from the report of persons who slept in the same room with him the effect, though of longer duration, was very similar to that of a dose of nitrous oxide gas: the muscular energy having been exceedingly increased, the patient could not be confined to bed, but danced and jumped about the room all n. In the m. I found him quietly asleep.” (Ibid.) 3. Eberle says:-“I have taken it very often, and have uniformly found it produce a calm and delightful state of feeling, succeeded by a disposition to sleep.” Dr. Oliver also found it to produce in him “the most delicious tranquillity, resembling the operation of opium, and followed by no bad effects.” (Ibid.).

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.
