MEDICAL ETHICS.
Three Odd Tales of Doctors Doings In
the Far Southwest

the Far Southwest.
Not many years have passed since
the New Mexico frontier was the abid
ing place of numerous odd characters
and amusing stories are yet told about
them. In those days any man was con-
sidered a doctor who put out a single
and dosed and cauterized and mangled
the sick and wounded. Sometimes
these doctors were caught in court and
forced to show their ignorance. One
of them operated in Mesilla. He had
no diploma, but that did not matter, for
he came in with the California col
umn" and was therefore considered
qualified for anything he might under
take.
A Mexican wounded in a fight died
under the doctors heroic treatment,
and when the assailant was placed on
trial for murder the defense called two
physicians, who testified that if the
wound had been let alone the patient
would have recovered. The defense
also brought in evidence that the dee
tor had no diploma, while their physi.
clans had two each. But the prosecu.
ton dwelt strongly upou the thirty
three years OF experience of the doctor
without noticing the query of the
opposing counsel as 10 how many pa.
tients he had killed in that ~time-and
with much force and eloquence set
that experience up against what he
considered the questionable papers
called diplomas. AS the Jury was in
doubt as to the nature OF a diploma but
had an idea as to the value Of expert
ence they brought in a verdict Of muir
der.
On another occasion the judge asked
the doctor:
How many ribs are there in the
human body?"
sixteen, may the court please"
promptly replied the doctor. Soon
after he quietly slipped into a back
room and vas seen with his coat and
vest off feeling of his sides. He reap.
peared and addressed the court:
May 1t please your honor, I desire
10 correct my testimony in regard tc
the number of ribs in the human body.
There are t~wenty-four instead of six
teen
When the Lennon tragedy occurred
in 1851 the fight took place in the street
in front of the doctors Office. Chavez
and Cleaver were on opposing tickets
for delegates to congress. Lennon
headed the Chavez procession and Kelly
the Cleaver procession. When they
met Lennon demanded the right Of
way, which was refused, and in the
fight which ensued Lennon, Kelly and
some one else were killed and left on
the ground, while the victorious pro.
cession pursued the vanquished. The
doctor carried the bodies into his Office
for the purpose, as he afterwards de.
clared, Of holding a post-mortem ex.
animation and refreshing his memory
and knowledge Of anatomy. Before
beginning operations he went across
the street to get a drink, and during
his absence friends Of the dead men
entered the Office and carried the bodies
away. When he returned and missed
the bodies the doctor became highly
indignant. He declared that to enter
MS Office and remoye the bodies was a
gross violation Of courtesy, 'and, more
than that" he exclaimed, sit is the
severest blow ever inflicted on the
profession Of New Mexico!'-Chicago
