If I had been there, I would have heaped high the fire with my own hands.” An exchange says: “Young Thom¬ as Stewart of Montreal, who was made blind by the terrible mistake of Dr. Proud-fool in removing the wrong eye in a surgical operation, lias written a friendly letter to tiie doctor expressing sympathy and snowing that ne realizes tiie true po¬ sition of tiie surgeon in the matter. I t is an exceptional young man who can bring himself to think kindlygof a person who has done him so great an injury. The doctor did not wil¬ fully and maliciously remove tiie wrong eye, of course; nor could it lie called carelessness, At Die same time, it is hard to find an excuse for a surgeon who removes a sound organ and leaves a diseased one, the two being separated by less than two in¬ dies.” Judge Gleaton and.
