Korsakoff we know stood very high in Hahnemann's esteem. The following letter from Hahnemann, found among his papers, seems to show that besides being the actual author of the high-potency mania, he gave Hahnemann the hint for administering remedies by olfaction which at one time was in great favour

Continue the activity that is gratifying to the sensitive heart, and I beg you to think well of yours truly,

S. Hahnemann.
