The doctors who attended the late king oi Portugal dnring the last few weeks of his illness presented bills for their services amounting to nearly $1OO,OOO One of them demanded Sl4. GOO for ten visits. an. other demanded $l7. GOO for fifteen. while a third thought that $3O, 900 was not too much to ask for his attendance at eighteen consultations. Eventually the new king succeeded in tffecfing settlement by means of lump sum of $60, ,OOO. Of course, says the Medical Record, this was polite robbery. In too many cases such | estates are robbed. It seems to make no difference whether the patient is killed or robbed, the bill for services is too often made out according to the size of he sick mans estate.
