A note to Sir Thomas Browne's "Letter to a Friend"
"...Hairs which have most amused me have not been in the face or head, but on the Back, and not in Men but Children, as I long ago observed in that endemial Distemper of little Children in Languedock, called the Morgellons, wherein they critically break out with harsh Hairs on their Backs, which takes off the unquiet symptoms of the Disease, and delivers them from Coughs and Convulsions."SIR THOMAS BROWNE AND THE DISEASE CALLED THE MORGELLONS
