MR. JOHN BELL; No. 2, York.street, Black-
friars'-road, when servant to IVlesars. (loam, Brothers,
and Co. Oilmen, Upper Thames-street, had a cask fell front a
cart on his knee, April 4. 1812, which rendered him incapable of
sertic:, and he applied to Mr. Astley Cooper, a. I ant informed.
who recommended him a plalster, which was used agreeable to
direction for one month, without success. Vas then recommend-
ed by Mr. Orme, Distiller, St.. Margaret's-hill, Borough, to SurreY
Dispensary, and attended) there reguLarlit for thew months, with-
out recalvirr, any bet.efit : was next admitted into St Tlacnitaa's
Hospital, on tretehes, and was immediately ordered ro bed, where
re continsfed four mouths, under the care of Mr. Surgeon Cone,
lan. who diligently attended him, and I do believe that he did at
which seas possible for he Practitioner of the old School to 3CC031-
pliSil, but without the Patient receiving any relief, being so sur-
rounded with lassitude, and contractions, as to be incapable of
walking hoc,c on crutches, at sante time attended with extreme
pain ; yet no disgrace can attach to this Gentleman, this said Pa-
tient having passed through the hands of Mr. A. C.. who is un-
doubtedly the best Cutting Surgeon in London.
A hew months after this, Mr. Bell having informed himself re-
specting the Case (85) of his neighbour, Mr.Dowleng, was taken
to Mr. titiest's, not then twin capable of wa king alone, on
crutches, with his knee and.ancle so contracted, that several gen-
tktnen who happened to-be there at this time did believe, with
Mr. Guest, that these joints were both ovified, but found them-
.selves agreeably disappointed, for in once hour be could move
them a little, and walked home on crutches, without any other
aiodstanee, his pains being completely relieved ; and he was elesi-
Milo take exercise, even at the expence of a !little pain. In ten
days he left off one crutch; in three weeks I.a declined the use of
both, and walked with a slick; at the end of emit weeks was
completely cured, being ijuite upright( and enabled to walk as
usual—Witness the Books at the Dis-pensary, the Books of the
Hospital, John Bell, and a thousand others in the Parish of
Christchurch, where he resides.
