accustomed to admire the leg and foot of the
lady, of the perfection of which she was, it ap-
pears, conscious. A few days before, he had
excited her anger and they quarreIled violently,

knee, and begged to have the limb removed, a
petition the surgeon complied WITH and thus be-
came the instrument of her own absurd revenge
upon her husband.
