This I know to be true, & that first it was as black as ink, then green, then gray, & at 22 month's end it was as white & lustrous as any oriental pearl. But it cured manias at 15 months' end." The mania for taking it or anything else sufficiently mysterious and unpleasant to give a value to its possession remains to this day.

And a similar accident occurred in the same pit in the year following, by which 22 persons perished.
