SUMMARY
Anonymous contemporary notice in The Medico-chirurgical Review criticizing Long's consumption treatment, published in January 1829, more than a year before the Cashin and Lloyd manslaughter cases. Identifier confirmed against PubMed E-utilities esummary. As with the 1830 companion piece, PMC's digitized back issue is image-only with no extractable text, so no verbatim quotation is taken; cited bibliographically to establish that the medical profession was already publicly contesting Long's claims before either death occurred.
NOTES

The earliest source in this bundle by date (January 1829), this Medico-chirurgical Review notice shows the medical profession was already publicly disputing St John Long’s consumption cure more than eighteen months before Catherine Cashin’s death. PMID and PMCID independently confirmed against PubMed E-utilities; the PMC scan is image-only, so this bundle cites it bibliographically rather than for a verbatim quotation.
