BENJAMIN FRANKLIN ON LEAD POISONING The first thing i remembei ' of this kind was a general discourse in Boston, when I was a boy, of a complaint from North Carolina against New England rum, that it poison ' d their people, giving them the dry bellyach, with a loss of the use of their limbs . . . We seldom drink rain water that falls on our houses; and if we did, perhaps the small quantity of lead, descending from such paint, might not be sufficient to produce any sensible ill effect on our boides. But I have been told of a case in Europe, I forgot the place, where a whole family was afflicted with what we call the dry bellyach, or Colica Picoto- num, by drinking rain-water. -1786 1.
