- 1776, N. D. FALCK, A treatise on the medical qualities of mercury, etc, page 301:
- Now where can we meet with more relief from art in this case than from mercury? --And whilst practice confirms. such a theory, I think we can have no greater inducement to put it into execution; and, for my own part, I am sanguinously persuaded many lives will in future be saved by it, who otherwise must be lost.
- 1894 January, W.H. Holmes, “Caribbean Influence in the Prehistoric Art of Southern States”, in American Anthropologist, volume A7, number 1:
- Neither of these figures exactly duplicates any of the Fiorida-Georgia designs, but comparison makes it clear that analogies in features of motive, grouping, and execution are remarkably close--too close certainly to have arisen save through identity or most intimate relationship, socially or sanguinously, of the peoples employing them.
