Seem to recall some time ago someone on the list mentioned they had a
dictionary of old medical terms. One of my family death certificates
(1904) lists a cause of death as "proslilie" -- as best as I can make out
the handwriting. Could this be an old name for prostrate cancer or some
such? Any other ideas? TIA, Tim
