ABSTRACT

Yesterday, a young man, standing about five feet eight or nine inches, and straight as a wand, came to me from a village about three miles distant. He is about twenty-three years of age. He had met with an accident which had deprived him of both arms ; one wrenched out of the socket at the shoulder, and the other torn off about three inches below. This being a sad case, I will give your Lordship his history, in his own words.
