After having dilated the wounds, we extracted some splinters, sawed off a piece of the cubital bone about four inches long, and in dressing the wounds endeavoured to avoid too large a suppuration. In the ordinary method amputation would certainly have been performed, as the fore-arm was shattered, and the upper arm which was untouched could admit of the operation, but we saved the arm and made a perfect cure without having recourse to such an expedient, which are so many evidences that give their testimony in favour of our method, which we can produce to the partisans of amputation. M. de Sass, colonel commandant of a regiment belonging to the garrison of Lattorf, and who is at present commandant at Brieg, received at the battle fought near Czeslau, a musket shot in the leg, which shivered the two bones into several fragments, of which some of four or five inches in length were extracted. The surgeons thought amputation necessary, and pressed him to submit to it; he refused however and recovered; although the limb is bent outwards he can walk and go about his business with ease. A soldier of the regiment of Cuirassiers of Gessler, called Lukrafka, was wounded in the going through the exercise with the regiment, in such a manner that the two bones were fractured in the middle, with several fissures lengthways. After having laid the fissures of the bone bare, I sawed through a piece of the tibia about five inches in length, which I removed together with the marrow; I separated with a pair of forceps the useless parts of the fibula which jutted out, then I placed the bones in their natural position, and at the expiration of four months the patient was cured. This limb was somewhat shorter than the other, he could nevertheless walk and leap with ease. M. de Franckenberg, a captain in Hulsen's regiment of foot, was terribly wounded by a musket ball at the battle of Loboschitz; all the bones of the tarsus were broke and shattered in such a manner that it seemed almost necessary to take away the whole number; which being done, and the parts of the foot brought close together, it recovered so far that this gallant officer, with the help of a double heel, can walk conveniently, and is able to do duty along with his regiment in garrison at Alt-Sydow.
