r 1 urine that witness saw. Mr. Cooper used a knife to enlarge the .opening bef ire he bred the forceps successfully; but he (Mt., Cooper) attempted to Apse the forceps ahoy •than once before he tnadetho' • •evfon4. nuadt good deal of force was used. and* the operator aid not appear to be in a state 4 self possession. Great force was used with the hand, and More than one gorget was used; never before saw a forget used after an incision had been made with a knife into the bladder. The operator said, in the pre sence of the patient, that he could not 'understand the difficulty ; never heard an operator, o any other occa sion, speak of his difficulties in the presence of the pa tient. The operator measured fingers with a Gentleman present. Never saw an operator act similarly in the presence of the patient. Mr. Cooper appeared to he confused, and he was hurried in his movements. The average time of such operations is from four to eight minutes, and never saw one occupy more than the latter period of time until the one in. question ; never saw so much violence used in any other case, and I think: that no patient could recover who had been subjected to such violence. I saw the stone, and it was not so large as a walnut. The parts appeared to be bruised. Cress-examined by Sir JAMES SCA RLSTT—Is not 21 ; was 20 last January ; has not yet finished his studies; is a pupil of St. George's Hospital. Has bad no expla nation of these matters. Never studied the model, nor did he give the defendant any report. Went from cu riosity to see the plaintiff perform the operation. Had seen five or six performed ; only saw the one in ques tion at Guy's Hospital. Stood about the third or fourth row born the operator, a little to his left band ; there might have been from one to two hundred present ; Mr. Callaway was the surgeon who assisted ; deems him a most competent judge of such operations. The first incision is only carried to the integuments; there was no small quantity of fluid before the forceps was used; has no doubt the knife went into the bladder, and if be was giving a report of the operation, he would not say it went somewhere; was admiited a licentiate of the Apothecaries' Company last spring; did not re present he was twenty-one; some one else did ; took an oath after he obtained a certificate; the Clergymen generally give them. Sir J. SCA RLSTE—Are Clergymen in the habit of giving false certificates? Witness—No. Sir J. SCARLETT—Where then did you obtain it ? The Cuter Jostles—No ; I must stop that question, far I will now state, that whoever obtains his certificate by means of a false certificate of age, is liable to be in dicted and punished.—The witness then withdrew. Joachim Gilbert, a member of the College of Sur geaas, deposed that he witnessed part of the operation, having been present only thirty-five minutes, because be could not.endure to witness the manner in which the operation was performed. The or orator used great and unnecessary violence. The witness described the opera tion, as far as he witnessed it, ivearly the same man ner as the preceding witnesses, but said that the forceps were poked about in the wound, and inserted no less than four times. The operation was in his opinion very badly and very improperly performed. Has seen the operation performed in less than a minute. Cross-examined—ls an assistant to Mr. Phelps at - Leminster, who is married to Mr , Wakely ' s alter. Mr. Peeelps resides in Dorset ; did not see the report before it was printed. The operator used unnecessary violence with the forceps. Sir J. SCA ELITT7---As if be meant to stab the man. Witness—Yes—(A laugh)—Was on the first row of beaches. I went away, not being able to witness the Operation out, I never made, any communication to the Lancei, nor do I know the extent of its sale. .1 never performed the Operation of lithotomy. I witnessed many operatiops in lithotonry. I think that Mr. Cooper is an noskilful operator, and. that it would be a benefit to the public jt he was removed from the hospital. . Sir JAMES Scoaterr—Have you ever witnessed the Operation of tying the subclavian artery ? • Witness—l have heard of the operation, and have seed it performed once by Me. Clive. Sir J. Scaaterr—Which operation do you think re quires the greatest skill on the part, of the surgeon, tying the subclavian artery or lithotomy? Witness—l shoUld think the operation of lithotomy requires the greatest skill. Sir J. SCARLIEET•-•Then you think it would require no skill to tie the subclavian artery ? Witness—lt would require skill to do so, but more skill to perform the operation of litbotomy. Sir J. SCA RLETT—Have you attended any lectures since you came to town ? Witness—No. Sir J SCARLET?—I mean none atWakely's—(A laugh) Witness—No; Mr. Wakely called at my lodgings 'yesterday morning, and stopped for a few minutes, but *he did not even sit down ; and that is the only conversa tion I have bad with t.im since I came to town. Re-ezamined by M'. Wakely A very ignorant sturgeon might by accident successfully bind the sub. elavian art-ry. John Thomas, Demonstrator of Anatomy at Mr. Slee's school in the Borough. deposed that he witnessed the operation, and never saw one performed in so un scientific and bungling a manner. This was his im pression at the time. „. , , I 'Mr. Wakely—Have yolk ever Oen me before io.d . ay? Witness—l do not know who ye u are. Cross-examined by Sir J. SCA RLIETE—.I ens a demon strata of anatomy at Mr. Slee's school, No. 1, Dean.: Street. Borough. Yin- J. Scaunarv—What do y... 0 mean by school? Witness—l mean a place where pupils ate harmed , into classes, And oboe a demonstrator of anatomy is appointed to teach them that of which be is master, and they are ignorant. „ Sir J. :CARLETT—What hospital does the school belong to ? . . , • Witness—Jo the Western Hospital; Mr. Slee is the surgeon of it; he established it himself about a year and a halt ago; he has two.schools, but the one in De street has twenty pupils, and I have been demonstrator since October to that school, but not to,beth. Sir J. Scaautir—Suppose the Gentleman who now.{ examined you to be the author of the Lancet, I want i to know how it o as that he came to know your opinion, on this operation ? . •.- • Witness—lconfess I was rathe r surprised, at it myself) I was not sebresnaed till Slate hour last night. Sir J. ganntarrT—Da you know, At t ar, how it.orall, Witness—Yes. conversation with a pupil named, Itainslord, I made the Tonal k,that I bad seen the opera tion, and that I thought it was performed in a bungling and inscientifie inaoner ; he has wicking to day ereloatonicated this fact to Mr. Wakely ; I have ' eoninineie,ations 10 the Lancet; I have made them of whie.h were insetted; those comnsuoicatioes ware at lOssA intervals, and I did not put toy name to Om; I amved . at the theatre after that iscision was Snide iatotha.bladdcr, apd I staid about S 5 minutes, dories which time the opfratiop ~was going forward; I have been annoasaator: as this new school since last October; I was present at three operations in lithotonsy at Gay's Hospital. Mr. Jeffrey _Pearl maimed by the defendant-. 4 rhit nessesk the operation in lithotovy, by Mr. B. Cooper ; I have sea the,report of it in the 4.ancer. There sat nothing vsbatever incorrect in th.t reoort. except 114 .. 1 . Mr. transhy Cooper said, "Give me Astley's knife,"' instead of " My uncle's." There was not a gush of urine from the bladder, as usual, but there was a trick ling ; I sat in about the middle row, on the operator's right band ; I could. I think, at that distance, distin guish between a small portion of arterial blood, and a mixture of venous blood and urine; arterial blond comes in bursts. After the staff and knife were Nu hed forward, I believe that there issued a small portion of both venous blood and urine; there was not a gush of fluid at any subsequent period ; I rather think that Mr. Cooper attempted to introduce the forceps after the first incision, and that failing in being able to do so, he made a second incision ; the same forceps was introducd repeatedly, and great force was used; the operator opened and shut the forceps with great violence. The forceps was a curved one, and it was pushed in to a considerable distance ; the fingers of the operator were introduced and turned in the incision ; I have witnessed, I believe, twenty operations in Isthotomy, and none wets performed in the same manner as this; the usual time for the par mance of an operation is from four to five minutes; I saw one by Mr. Green that lasted nearly an hour, but that was a peculiar case; the patient had been operated on twice before, and the cicatrix via; hard and uneven, and he had two very large stones to extract, which crumbled into innumerable .mall pieces in the bladder; the time was there occupied an re;- moving. the fragments. There was no force used by Mr. Green, and his manner of using the scoop and forceps was decidedly contrary to that of Mr. Cooper ; the st ale in the case of Mr. Cooper was abart the size of a Windsor bean; during the oreration Mr. Cooper told the patient and the pupils that he could find no earthly reason for the difficulty in removing the stone. 0 0 Hush, hush," said he, 0. I hear the stone, but I cannot catch it with the forceps;' I think, continued the witness, that he might have taken the stone had he introduced the forceps scientifically the sound might have passed through a hole too small to admit the forceps; Mr. Cooper did not appear to me to be in a state 01 self-poss. ssion, and I think that he used his instrument without any rational object; the opera tion lasted about an hour ; I saw the parts after the death of the patient, and I could not discover any cause in the formation to prevent the operation from being properly performed; when I saw the blad der there appeared to me to be two incisions in it; a portion of the neck of the bladder was between the two incisions ; the incisions were oblique, and not hori zontal, as any incision ought to be in such an operation. I think it utterly impossible that the patient could have sut vivid alter such an operation as this one; - the blad der appeared to be very thickened from violent inflam mation; bruises in the bladder would be likely to pro duce. great disorganization and inflammation; I saw Mr. Dransby Cooper operate, and I should not conceive him to be a good operator by any means ; I have been a pupil "of Guy's Hospital mese than a year,. but am not a member of the College of Surgeons. Cross-examined by Sir JAhlita SCAIILaTT-1 teas educated at Woodbridge under an at my surgeoc ; I con dialed to attend Guy's Hospital, and have seen nearly all the operations there:* I read the Lancet, but trave l not contributed reports to it; I never saw Mr. Cooper perform but one sk.lful °nitration, which was tying the sabclavian artery ; a surgeon may, without, much skill,. .perform such an operation as this accidentally; I read she report in the Lancet on the day it came dut ; I had ao :visa to suspect that the report would appear, but as such operations usually are inserted in it, I thought that perhaps this would; I was struck with the variance be. tweets the report and the fact of his saying—" Sir Astley's knife, and not "my uncle's." I therefire re marked the difference. When I have been round the wards with him, I have repeatedly heard him say— " Fetch my uncle's gargle, or my uncle's mixture— (A laugh, is which Sir Astley Cooper heartily joined). I can't say who furnished the report to the Lancet . ; I was introduced to Mr. Wakely by a Mr. Lambert, at the house of the latter Gentleman; I remained there about an hour; we had a conversation about this case. and upon my oath I do not know, from that or any other conversation, that Lambert had reported the case for the Leurod, Mr. Lambert was generally suspected, but I do not know for what reason, to have contributed the report; I was asked at Lamberes respecting the operation, and I gave the same account as I now do; Mr. Wakely and Mr. Lambert thought that the instru ment passed between the bladder and the tauten, but upon my oath, they did not induce me to 'State so; many persons, however, thought so ; a Mr. Whit taker was also present at this conversation ; 1 drank tea with them; there was no model of any of those parts introduced to us ; I went sometime after that toWakely's house.and'remained there about ten minutes; I cannot take on myself to say whether the forceps passed between thebladderand the rectum ;WaltelyandLamber t gave good reasons for malt;ng a man think that they did pass in that way; I think that they did - so pass in the first incision, upon the examination of the parts after death. Lambert put his hand between the bladder and dm rectum; be then took it up, and showed it ko Dr. HOdgkin; the Doctor said that he did not like to have I persons, who had no business at the hospital, come' there to spoil preparations. I did not hear Doctor' Hodgkin say to Lambert, " Friend, thou , didst it thyself." I did not see Lambert put his band' there, but at L'ainberes house that was mentioned as a reason for the incision being between the rectum and bladder. This witness having occasionally hesitated in his' answers, Sir Jams SeliaLaTT said this operation of getting answers is so painful. that I shall discontinue it. -Witness.-;-h is by no means painful to me, I assure you, Sir—(A laugh). On his re-examination by the defendant, the witness declared that the defendant had never induced him to give any particular evidence,on this trial. Mr. James Lambert examined by the defendant—l witnessed the operation in question, and furnished you with the report, declaring upon my honour that it was true, but that it was rather an understatement than overstatement; I now repeat that the report is true in substance, and I know of no material inaccuracy in it, but have since beard that Mr. Callaway held the stone in his hand, and not in a forceps ; the subject was in my Opinion a favourable one for operation; the opera tion lasted for more than an hour; the impression on my mind was that the knife had not entered the blad der, because there was not the usual gush after the in cision. Alter stating the particulars of the operation, the witness said that he we. present at the pa Motels examination ; the subject was lying on the floor of the Demonstrator's room; the morbid pots were relayed ; I asked for them, and they were shown to 'aft in the presence of several of the pupils; my attention was of Plane directed to see whether any difficulties would resent themselves in the morbid parts ; I found the 'psostrate gland rather littler thin usual; I saw of this left side of the gland a smallish oblique cut; the part ,14 aro u n iw nd ; t on he t n h e e c . k und o e f r th pa e rt b of iadder ibe .MlLll49.l7dthettilebe tr tli'efer was a singular tilithite ; it. walla' Mall pialtision about tile like tl.ri tip of lit y finWer ;on !ril!nfroing farther,_ I found that my fidget ?Hied up I with' the greatest facility between the Meddle and the realm); on my soleMn oath I did not see the slight est force in passing my finger between the bladder and the rectum; neither did I break down any struc ti•re ; o hilst I was showing this to the pupils, Doctor Hodgkin came up rather angrily, and said, " I wish ; eo pie who have no business here would not come to pull things about;" and added, that somebody had broken down the fungous appearance on the neck of the bladder; I followed, and assured him that I had merely examined the preparation, and that I had been for a considerable time about that hospital, and was incapable of doing any thing so improper; Dr. Hodgkin said that it was not a deep peritoneum; indeed that these war nothing remit' liable about ii; I remember observing to Mr. Kay, that from the result of this operation his instrument did nr t appear to be fir for operating where the petite net.on was del); Mr. Kay instantly replied, " If yoa say that the peritoneum of this patient was deep, you know nothing about it ;" the witness said he never heard' of a person with any pretension to skill passing the knife between the bladder and rectum in an operation for the stone; and that he had never seen the operation! performed as it was on this occasion; witness did not think that Mr. Bransby Cooper was competent to fill the office of surgeon of Guy's Hospital. Cross-examined by Sir J. SCARIATT—I am a sur geon, and have been in the yrofession thirteen years; I consider myself more competent than Mr. Bransby Croper to perform an operation like this; I began at tending the hospitals els ut six years ago, and was ad- Mitted *surgeon about three years since; this is not the first communication I have made to the Lancet ; I have been a contributor for some years ; I receibed emolument for my contributions ; I did not derive a larger income from it than from my practice as a sou geon ; I am intimate with the Editor ; I used to receive eight guineas a month, and of erwards was paid in pro. p. rtion to the matter published; I cannot say exactly when I first began to contribute towards the tuned ; I think it was about a year ago; I should think that the circulation of the Lancet paper was worth about five or ix thodsind pound's a year; I bel;eve Mr.Wak ly prac. tibia as a surgeon occasionally ; I believe the principal income of Mr.Wakely is derived from this work; hiever recollect Mr. Bramby Crosier turning me out of the room. Upon further consideration the witness said, I remember one occasioa at Guy's Hospital, wh,n Mr. Cooper addle sed me, but there was so mach noise that I could not tell what he said ; I know that at some din• ner there was something said; I think I objected to something, when he came from the chair, with others, and th tight 1 had disturbed the harmony; I then I.ft the room, because I felt there was a *tiring feeling against the measure I had adopted; I cannot erectly' say when this Was, it Migfit be two years ago; I don't remember any quarrel trial I had with Mr. Cooper; I never rememoer Mr. Cooper saying that I' should l leave the room or he would, unless some apology were made; I believe the word " bats" in this work is applied to the Hospital surgeons; I recollect some inquiry being made by Mr. Cooper in tegard to the word as applied to him; I think that occurred at St. Thomas's Hospital, but I think it was not in the lecture room. I can swear most positively that I do not recollect Mr. Cooper saying, that unless an apology were made, either he or I must leave the room; I remember using the word " bat" once ifi speaking of a trial, but I have no hesitation in saying that I applied that to no one in particular; I said to Mr. Cooper that I did Oct intend it to be personal ; I do not remember saying that I would Make him repent . it; I swear that to the best of' my recollection. lam a man of warm feelings, and I may have said many things in the course fmy life which Ido not recollect, but Ido not believe I ever said this; I don't think. iympoisible that I could, but I have no such impression on my mind. Upon my oath I never recollect using such wads; I am of opinion that the dinner was some time in January; I think it was some time about Christmas; I have never be en but to one dinner,aad then I went away, bat was not turned out ; I carried this report .to my friend Mr. Wakely, and this was one of the weekly contributions; this fell within the eight guineas per month ; lam not aware that there were one or two ex pressions in it more severe than he thought it right to publish; I assered him they were tue; the principal al. 'nations, I bel eve, which Mr. Wakely made, were with respect to the time ;1 believe I stated it was rather more than an hour, and Mr. Wakely said be would rather be ; tinder the mark; I do not remember any other alters. tions ; 1 have not seen the manuscript since it was written. I did not v:tite the next attack on Mr. Cooper, nor any part of it ; the first time it was thought the knife reached the bladder I saw no gush of urine, and I considered that a fair round for judging that the knife had not reached the bladder ; I did not see any gush of urine at any time afterwards ; the only way I have of explaioing is.' that when the krtile was 'haughty) have touched the blade' der, I observed no gush of urine. and my impression war' that it had not entered the bladder; I believe a small opening may hive been made into the bladder, th;ongh which a small quantity of urine oozed ; I understood' Mr Co-per to say, "Give me my uncle's knife," but Ij liinncx swear positively to that; the first impression on my mind was—" My uncle's knife, or Sir Astley's." but! 1 will not swear to it ; I did not say in my report, nor' iffd I intend to convey such an impression that Mr.! Bransby Cooper bad murdered the man; but I intended' Ito convey the impression that the patient had lost his 'life fir want of skill ; I lamented the occurrence, and did not consider that this period was an important one to get reputation, in addition to my eight guineas a month ; I did not think it a subject for ridicule; I saw 'the man before the operation was performed; I cannot say whether Mr. B. Cooper wished the operation to be performed or not ; I am not aware that Mr. Carainger has a cheap theatre near Guy's Hospital ; I know he has a theatre there, which I believe to be as respect. able as any ; no lecture, I believe, has been given upon , the model of the operation, for the purpose of proving Mr. B. Coopers want of skill ; I have been present wheal subjects of this kind have been demonstrated by Mr.l Pilger, but I believe not with a view to this case. I I believe Mr. Grainger knew of the case • I cannot con fine myself to the mode; I believe there was a dead subject there; upon my oath, I do not think it was gives with reference to this case; I have beard both Mr. Grainger and Mr. Pilger speak upon this, but I was net present at the set lecture; 1 have before s ated that 1 was present when a demonstration was given. I have shown the model to persons in the room. But I have not demonstrated the parts to persons in the room with a view to this case. I have been to the room and examined the parts repeatedly, but I beli e s. not for any improper purpose, but knowing that I Was to give evidence in this case, it was with a view of se. freshiag my memory with respect to it; I believe wit. mtsWs on troth - sides were prelim, and I - explained %IS I Ware, to 11 14 disease to them ; I again repeat Iwe stidr 1,. to refresh my own memory ; I had met Mr, w I. i -- there on. one occasion ; he was not p re , ent whel 7 l I heard him.
