to be taken cert. He Again ,consulted,
Dr. Appleton, who said it was only
partially dead and could .ye,t, be snvod.•
The result of the operation proved' that
it was dead entirely as One of the joints
was completely severed and the bone
appeared porott.i like an old one you
mightpiek up. Dr. Young stated that
in a few days the•inflan 1i tion would
have extended into the hand and have
necessitated ' its ampntftiOn. 'He
thinks he can save ,the 'finger, saying' a
