"I was able to walk, bub could not sit,",he said.\ "I was. in.l full possession of my senses, "knew, where I was, could respond to ques-> tions, and could move my limbs, bnt< for all I felt I might have been coni-j plctely paralysed. I can truthfully say that, no anaesthetic could have acted-' more potently in .sending my body to,; sleep while leaving me : in full possession of my faculties. I can distinctly, remember getting no sleep that nighty, but after the surgeon had cut open my hand to clean the wound and bound a ligature around my arm I began to sit up and take notice. I became 'merely ill' and sensation returned. ,-The next evening brought the anti-venin, rushed up- with commendable expedition ifroiu the London Zoo, and I received my first injection."
