fettet was with 0od i srosr a case that made a name whbt wt tbe most interesting case in your long experience doctor it was at alitue entertainment given in honor of dokor tourniquti retirement from practice an event we yonnger aspir ant felt inclined to celebrate with no tmall satisfaction- that tbe foregoing qutstioo wis put to the guest of the evening i think taid the old gentleman after a moments reflection sad casting a father ly look upon us through his goldrimmed spectacles aboal the most interesting case i ever had was the first woald yoa mind relating it jot stall whatever secret there once was about itjall reason for keeping it has long since ceased its nowjrearly fifty years he contin ued sidce i presumed fo settle down here and enter inlecompetition with old car ver whose dazzling gilt sign emblazoned with his name and professional designation of pfftbiciur ijtd cebcokon cur mudgeon would have hit the mark more nearly had hitherto enloyed a monopoly of lighting fools thewaytodusty death he neverjpassed me without a scowl and never spoke of me but with contempt his evident purpose wss to nip my preten tions in the lud i should never have a case if he cot kl help it i came vi iry near getting one in spite of him before u rig a poor wretch had cut his throat ju it missing the carotid artery and severing i number of important veins 1 a messenger dispatched for old carver not finding jiim in bad left word for him to come imm idialely and then as a make shift hnrriec on for me i accompanied him at once tud found the wounded ran so utterly prt strate from the loss of blood that but the aintest signs of life retrained a few drops of an invigorating cordial whichlforod him to swallow partially revived him aad i was preparing to sew up and dress the wound when old carver came hustlk g in and pushed me aside rudely of ourse the case was his by right of beini first summoned and i could not oppose hi i taking charge of it hmuph be granted clapping his fingers on ux patients pulse which had somewhat ril en fromthe effect of tbe cord ial what li ive you been doing hero f f x gave lira t restoratiye i answered aod thjw htm into a feverl tntec- ruptad old carver without wailing to hear further then whipping out his lancet be pro ceeded to deplete the sufferer of what little blood he had remaining i trust youre satisfied with your work he growled u the man gave a gasp and fell back dead i was about- to repel indignantly- tbe insinuation that it was at my door tbe mans death lay but the looks and muttering of the crowd admonished me that my word would weigh but little agnirst that of tbe venerable quack and that if i would- get off with a whole skin 1 had better go at ence host no opportunity wheoeverl could get s hearing of relating the true state of the caw aud vindicating my conduct- the restorative i insisted had beeo absolutely necessary lo stimulate the flagging vital current sod demonstrated the atupid folly of bleeding aman already almost bled to death but tbe listeners would only shake their beads and say doc carver was a powerful good judge o physic and they iqwed that i couldnt do bettern lam a wrinkle or two from him my prospects which had never risen much above zero now sank considerably lower i began to lose heart at last aod wis seriously considering the sdvisableness of giving up the struggle and leavine the headstrong population to old carver and their fte when care night i received a hurried call to attend a eenllenui wbohad just had his leg broken mr boammi furneval tbe individual referred to was a respectable middleaged bachelor for some time back thought to be particularly attentive to miss berenice polls s maiden lady of fortune and nearly his own age lir attempting to board the moving rail way train he bad missed his footing and fallen so that one of his legs was run over and completely crushed almost to the knee they carried him home on a stretcher and as must in such esses messengers ran for all the doctors in the place that is to say in the present instance for old carver and myself we arrived simultaneously its compound comminated fracture of thetiokucdthejaaja said old carver pushing forward to take possession by first getting his ngly paw on the injured limb which he fumbled roughly through the clothing its a case fox immediate am putation he added opening his case of instruments ishallnot require yoar services spoke up mr fnrneval with considerable energy for one in his condition i prefer placing myself in the hands of dr tourniquet everybody looked astonished and old carvers face grew blacker than a thunder cloud tour blood be on your own head he croaked ominously and bundling up his instruments he banged the door behind him i wish to be left alone with the doc tor said mr furneval when old carver had gone if assistance be needed it can be called everybody withdrew but the patient and myself ant there alone and single banded i did everything the case requir ed you dont mean lossy you amputated the limb without eadsunce saidafldgcfy little md across the table ko you see mr f as i have said was keeping company with mia potts and thinking he might be better able to wall than to hobble into her affections we decid ed againt ampntatinn and firoeeeded ac cordingly next morning 1 met old carver on the street he was in tbe habit of passing me with a frown without speaking bat this time he stopped hows your patlentf he lnqulredwith a sneer doing finely i replied tour first amputation i euppoae neither srst nor last isaid i didnt amputate at all i suppose you know the legs smashed to flinders ida mand you havent amputated no and dot intend tof no better go by the undertaken and order a coffin then f hes busy oh one for your last victim i believe said i hurrying along without further parley for tearly a week mv patient saw no one but myself and tbe servant who carried up his meals then a few friends were admitted to cheer his confinement which he bore with admirable patience in six weeks i remov ed the splints and the nut day mr fur neval was walking oat as well as ever my fame was in everybodys mouth even old carver could find nothing to carp at for he bad everywhere circulated the terrible na ture of tbe njuiy and predicted the pa tients speedy- death my practice soon exceeded my most sanguine hopes and old carvers whilom patrons flocked to me in saeh numbers that he shut up thep and retired in dlsgart was the limb really sst badly fractstrea as at first supposed inquired the fldgetty little doctor opposite quite ground almost to powder yoa might any t and gave no sign of lameness after- wardst t no more than before 4h hiad previ ously been a slight bitch in that leg but i think there was less afterwards
