In 1866, the Treasury placed rooms at Adelphi Terrace at the disposal of

Marlborough, who was the Chairman of the Association for the Trial of
Preventative and Curative Treatment in the Cattle Plague by the Homeopathic
Method, based on the research done in Belgium by Edward Hamilton, with
Marlborough overseeing the work of Edward Hamilton, George Lennox Moore,
James Moore and Alfred Crosby Pope.

William Coutts Keppel Viscount Bury 7th Earl of Albemarle issued an address or
report for the Association for the Trial of Preventative and Curative Treatment in
the Cattle Plague by the Homeopathic Method in 1866. Bury reported that the
Dutch had experienced such success with homeopathy against that cattle plague,
that they had authorised Edward Hamilton to visit Holland to investigate this.

Edward Hamilton discovered that the Dutch had treated 4798 cattle, 1031 were
destroyed = 3767 were treated (with a mixture of allopathic and homeopathic
treatments), the survival rate for the beasts treated was 45%, and the survival
rate for the beasts treated only by homeopathy was 72-5%.

The Dutch Government had agreed to allow E Seutin, a homeopathic chemist, the
total control of infected cattle in Matterness, and initially, E Seutin saved 70% of
the cattle, though latterly, he had saved 9 out of every 10 beasts brought to him
for treatment, and E Seutin’s use of homeoprophylaxic treatment of unifected
beasts brought the epidemic under control entirely within four weeks. Matterness
was pronounced free from infection and it has remained thus ever since. The
remedies used were arsenicum, phosphorus, phos ac, rhus tox and sulphur.

In 1866, George Lennox Moore became involved with Association for the Trial of
Preventative and Curative Treatment in the Cattle Plague by the Homeopathic
Method, alongside Edward Hamilton and Alfred Crosby Pope, and overseen by
Marlborough.

George Lennox Moore wrote a detailed report on these trials, including a

refutation of the falsities published in The Lancet regarding the homeopathic
treatment of the cattle plague, attacking William Coutts Keppel Viscount Bury 7th
Earl of Albemarle and accusing him of ‘being completely misinformed on this
matter‘, and inventing a trail of misleading mistruths about the situation.

The orthodox statistics of this clinical trial revealed 8640 cases, 8% killed, 77%
died and 15% recovered, though Marlborough subsequently issued the interim
homeopathic results claiming up to 50% recovery rates with arsenicum,
belladonna, phosphorus, rhus tox and turpentine as the main homeopathic
remedies used.

The Times wrote an article wishing the homeopaths success in these

homeopathic trials, but they also made a pithy comment that the allopaths would
probably rather see all the cattle die than have homeopathy proved successfull.

The final report on the homeopathic trials in the treatment of cattle plague was
issued by Marlborough. The orthodox statistics of this clinical trial revealed 8640
cases, 8% killed, 77% died and 15% recovered, though Marlborough
subsequently issued the interim homeopathic results claiming up to 50% recovery
rates with arsenicum, belladonna, phosphorus, rhus tox and turpentine as the
main homeopathic remedies used.

Of course, the ‘valuable and so far successful’ results of the homeopathic trials so

far outstripped orthodox treatments, the homeopathic trials were immediately
postponed by ‘orthodox sources’.

Marlborough was born at Garboldisham Hall, Norfolk, the eldest son of

George Spencer Churchill, 6th Duke of Marlborough and Lady Jane,
daughter of Admiral George Stewart, 8th Earl of Galloway. He was
educated at Eton and Oriel College, Oxford.

Marlborough was Member of Parliament for Woodstock from 1844 to

1845 and again from 1847 to 1857, when he succeeded his father in
the dukedom and entered the House of Lords.

He served under Lord Derby as Lord Steward of the Household from

1866 to 1867 and under Lord Derby and later Benjamin Disraeli as
Lord President of the Council (with a seat in the cabinet) from 1867 to
1868. He was sworn of the Privy Council in 1866 and made a Knight of
the Garter in 1868. He again held office under Benjamin Disraeli as
Lord Lieutenant of Ireland from 1876 to 1880.

On 12 July 1843, Marlborough married Lady Frances Anne Emily (1822

– 1899), the only daughter of the 3rd Marquess of Londonderry. They
had eleven children:

l George Charles Spencer Churchill, 8th Duke of Marlborough

(1844–1892)

l Lord Frederick John Winston Spencer Churchill (1846–1850).

l Lady Cornelia Henrietta Maria Spencer Churchill (1847–1927),

l Lord Randolph Henry Spencer Churchill (1849–1895),

She married Edward Marjoribanks, 2nd Baron Tweedmouth.

l Lord Augustus Robert Spencer Churchill (1858–1859), died

l Lady Georgiana Elizabeth Spencer Churchill (1860–1906)

Marlborough. The Duchess of Marlborough died in April 1899, aged 77.
