A TUMoR OF TWELVE YR AIRS GROWTH REMOVED Bl
DIR. FoRwooD, OF CHESTER.
The Chester NeaeS, of Friday, gives the follow
lug account OF a delicate surgical operation per
formed by DR.. J. F. NJ. Forwood:
Yesterday morning an English lady from Boil
ton, Lancashshire, underwent an operation at the
office OF DR.. J. +. M. ForWOod. For mere thaH
twelve years fatty tumor has been growing on
her back commencing near the nape Of the neck
1t extended downwards until its great size became
a source of serious annoyance to her. The doctor,
on being consulted, told her that nothing except
the knife would effect a cure With little hesita-
ton she consented to allow him TO try his skill.
Punctually at 10 o'clock she made her appear
ance, and DR.. Policy soon had her under the in
huence of a mixture ei chlorofoTm and ether. DIR.
Forwood speedily and skillfully separated the tu-
NOR, the bleeding vessels were quickly tied, the
exposed surface closed by the insertion OF ig-
atures Of silver wire through the opposite sides of
the skim and in less than half an hour In place OF
the hidous defOrmity the lady, who was 62 years
OF age, presented respectable appearance. There
was comparatively speaking, little hemorrhage.-
DR. Christ rendered valuable assistance as did al
30 Mayor F0rwOOd. The tumor weighed IL
pounds and three quarters, was "a inches in cir.
cumference and had p inches pedicle AltoReth-
er 1t was a favorable operation, and the lady
went home by the O'Clock train to West Branch,
hockland, in good spirits, considerably lightened
OF her cumbersome load.
