1t is related of Sir Astiey that he was
once called TO perform an almost hope
less operation upon a Mr.. Blight, who
had been shot by an unknown assassin.
The prominence Of the man and the
mystery surrounding the shooting rem
dered the case celebrated at the time OF
the occurrence.
Mr.. Blight was unconscious at the
time Of the examination. and nothing
could be obtained from him. The mo-
mcnt Sir Ashley examined the wound
he turned TO his assistant aud said: A
pistol has been fired at him with the
left hand Then he explained the rea-
sons for his conclusions.
While ne was still engaged in this
Mi. Blight's partner, a MIR. Patch. q
man esteemed rs reputable, entered the
house and was shown TO the room.
Something about his manner aud his
c~ounteuancc attracted the attention Of
Sir Ast.cy, and he whispered to his col
league: If that gentleman were left

crime"
The next instant he turned to Patch
and said: -will yos kindly hand me

was accused Of the murder. and upon
