Excerpt from The Medical News, Vol. 47: A Weekly Medical Journal; July-December, 1885 The cases of Friedreich and Gowers are not, strictly speaking, hereditary, for neither the parents nor any of the ancestors, as far as known, were ataxic. Cases are on record, however, which are hereditary; for instance, those of Carre, reported by Brousse, in which of twelve children seven were ataxic; the mother was ataxic, and her brothers and sisters, eight in number, as well as one cousin, were also affected with ataxia.
