Within an Inch of My Life.
During the early years of my medico -
military oaxeer, I was selected as the
assistant -surgeon of the Army Lunatic
!
Asylum t). en established in one of the
eastern o untiea of England. At the
time of the appointment, I was given to
understatid that it was one whi h paid
a high compliment to my pro essional
abilities, ncl was bestowed as a reward
for good ervice done; but as I did not
see it quite in the 'same light, went
and interviewed the chief w io had
thought se• much more of me th in I did
of myself
' Sir,' a •,1 1, 'some men are born to
honors'o hers have them thru t upon
them : th latter is my case.- -don't
understa d one bit about the tr atment
moral or nedieal of the insane. r never
•saw but one madman in my life, and
he,I veri y believe, was more knave
than fool and I cau't help thinking
that if yoi send me to the Asylum, you
are send ng the round man to fit into
the squar ' hele.'
' That is not of the slightest 0011s0quenee,' nswered he whom I as ad-
dressing, n the richest of brogu s; not
the layste in loife. Round or quare,
the hole ill suit yon to a t; and if so
be that y; don't know anythinge mean-
ing lunati s, whey, the sooner y Jarn
the bethe . Ye'll be plased t • jine
without cl lay. Good morning.' So he
bowed me out ; and I, having a hole -
seine dread of the powers that were,
' jined ' forthwith.
It is one of Shakespeare's wis say-
ings, that ' Use doth breed habi ha a
man.' Before there had passed away
many weeks of my sojourn with tl e de-
mented officers and men of Quees Vio-
toria's land forces, I found mysel high-
ly interested with their pretty and wal-
l:land-for clorne, running please itly in
the grooveg had so much objeo ed to,
and. gettibg rid for ever and a 0 ay of
that repugnance which every oitsider
naturally , enough entertains when
brought into contact with the de izens
of a madhouse. With a pass key, hioh
was an op€n sesame to every lock 'n the
establishment, I was aocuetom:d to
wander over it unattended either •y the
' keeper ' er the orderlies; and never
was I molested or spoken to thr aten-
fngiy save once, and that upon th occa-
sion I have elected to name ' Wit in an
Inch of my Life.'
In the a ternoons, when the pa dents
were not indoors, it was my praot ce to
goehrough, every part of the building,
inspecting t sanitarily. I was do ng so
as usual w on a certain winter's day,
when, at a curve of a corridor, I carne

shall mere]say that we had iloubts
upon his c4se, and had recomm, nded
his remove from the Asylum to th care

elude the vgilance of the orderly rider

and to be where I met him was ene of
the things I never understood. Bat so
it was.
When he saw me, his melan
