battle Of Gaines mill, in front Of Richmond,
DR.. Whitfield was thrown down by the force
Of q n ball which passed close to him,
and before he could regain his feet was
struck in the bottom Of his right heel by a
musket ball. The bullet lodged near the
ankle joint. producing = severe and painful
wound. The ball was extracted and the
wound healed. and, although it occasionally
caused him pain and Inconvenience, he had
no reason to believe that it would ~necessi-
tate further surgical operations. In this,
however, he has been mistaken. Since his
residence in the Black Hills, which com.
menced between I've and three years ago, in
the practice Of his profession he has been
compelled to do a great deal Of horseback
riding. This he thinks has had a tendency
to develop the latent I'M ,ries to his foot,
and some two months ago he was compelled
to have = surgical operation performed by
which some Of the injured bones were re-
moved ; but the operation was not effective
and sufficiently thorough, aud his condition
continued to grow rapidly worse. He o
lost the entire use Of his foot, while the con.

the somewhat unskilltul surgical operation
