R., age 8 years. laryngeal, nasal, post pharyngeal typeI 1,000 units), hut it was put off too lateand both died the same day the anti-toxin was used. We injected antitoxin I Mulford > in the ease of U. age 13 years I pharyngeal type, 3,000 units and Mrs. J. pregnant over 8 months (ton-silitis type) 3,000 units both of whom recovered.
