This is the only large published proving of Medorrhinum. Why it was "translated" is unexplained, since Dr. Berridge was an English speaker with a practice in the UK. He was a close associate of Ad. Lippe, Samuel Swan, and Thomas Skinner, and with them, edited the journal The Organon from 1878-1880. Although there are 56 proving sources listed, scant information is given about some of the provers, who supervised, or what dosages were given. We find in number 46 a proving done on a "child or children." In the proving we find the now "keynote" symptom of sleeping on the knees with the behind up, and the head in the pillow. This was seen in one of the children, aged five. Most of these provings were done with high potencies prepared by Fincke or Swan.
