Original text on this topic:
The subject of the following observations was brought from the East Indies to England, where it was intended he should remain, until a favourable opportunity should offer of sending him to Vienna. During the passage from India, he appeared to enjoy a good state, until a few days before his death; at which time he was attacked with difficulty of breathing, and died before he had attained his third year.
