OF INTEREST TO PHYSICIANS.
important Decision BY The Law Court.

In a rescript in Kepnebec county
case written by Associate Justice Phil
brook and handed down by the Law Court
July 18th, the court ruled that physi-
clan can only use his best skill and judy
ment, but that the patient must follow
the reasonable instructions of his physi-
clan and submit to his treatment. If he
fails to do so and his negligence directly
contributes to the injury he can not re-
cover damages.
In the case in question the court held
that the jury did not take into considera-
ton the Testimony which related to the
conduct of the plaintiff and its effect in
producing the unfortunate results from
which he now suffers"
The rescript is regarded as of great
Importance to members of the medical
profession. 1t follows:
O. P. Merrill VS.. Joseph E. Odiorne.
Rescrlpt, Philbrook, J.
This is an action against a surgeon to
recover damages resulting from alleged
negligence on his part in the reduction
and treatment of fractured limb. The
verdict was in favor of the plaintiff and
the defendant asks that the verdict be
set aside and a new trial granted.
Held:
l. The measure of physicians legal
responsibility has been stated many times
by this court. He contracts with his
patient that he has the ordinary skill of
members OF his profession in like situa-
ton, that he will exercise ordinary or
reasonable care and diligence in his treat
ment of the case, and that he will use
his best judgment in the application of
his skill to the case. The physician is
not an insurer. He does not warrant
favorable results. If he possesses ordi-
nary skill, uses ordinary care, and applies
his best judgment, he is not liable even
for mistakes in judgment. Medical
science is not yet, and probably never
can be, in many respects, an exact certain
science.
2. But in cases of this nature duty de-
wolves upon the patient. 1t is his duty to
follow the reasonable instructions and
submit to the reasonable treatment pre-
scribed by his physician or surgeon. If
he fails in his duty, and his negligence
directly contributes to the injury, he can
not maintain an action for malpractice
against his physician or surgeon, who
may also be negligent in treating the
case.
8. 1t is the opinion of the court, upon
a careful examination of the evidence,
that the jury did not give due considera-
ton to that part OF the testimony which
related to the conduct of the plaintiff and
its effect in producing the unfortunate
results from which he now suffers. Hence
the verdict was so erroneous as to de-
mand an affirmative finding upon the
motion OF the defendant.
Motion sustained.
New trial granted.

THE sARDlNE SITUATION.

The Portland Argus says: .'The local
sardine factories are doing very light
business at the present time: shutting
down completely some days. The run Of
fish at the Foreside and down the bay
the catch having been too small for can
ming. The fish grow rapidly, however.
and in another month will probably have
attained the required size, it being ex.
pected that August will be the banner
month of the season as regards the catch,
it being planned to run the factories to
their full capacity if the market war
rants. The general sardine situation is
none too good at the present time, the
packings at the Eastport and Lubec fac.
tories having been considerably heavier
than had been reported, and in order to
effect sales there has been much cutting
of prices on the part of some of the can
ners who were financially unable to hold
on"

THE NEW CUTTER ossIPEE.

Having been completed, as required by
officials of the coast guard service, and
having successfully met all tests, the
new cutter Ossipee, which is to succeed
the cutter Woodbury. at Portland, has
been turned over to the government au-
thorities at the Newport News shipyard.
The cutter Apache has been ordered
there from Baltimore to tow the Ossipee
to Arundel Cove, South Baltimore, where
she will be fitted out for service. Sew
eral weeks will be required for this, but
when completed she will be sent directly
to Portland for guard along the Maine
coast and will relieve the Woodbury.,
which is to be sold at public auction to the
highest bidder and will be delivered to
the purchaser when the Ossipee goes into
commission. Work on the cutter Talla-
poosa, the sister ship of the Ossipee, is
about completed at Newport News. She
will do service on the coast of Florida.
