that worth considering? We have best

Biirjslcal operations, says the Urltish
Medical Journal. This seems to have
been particularly the case in Denmark.
July 24. 1579, a license was Issued by
Frederick II. to Anders Fretmut, exe
cutioner of Copenhagen, granting him
the right to set bone3 and treat old
wounds; he was expressly forbidden
to meddle with recent wounds. In 1009
It is recorded In the municipal
archives of Copenhagen that Caspar,
the hangman, had received four rigs

In the Infirmary. In lGSS Christian l.
summoned the executioner of Olucli
stadt in Holstein to examine the dis
enscil foot of the crown mince In a
letter addressed to Ole Worm, a lead
log Danish physician of the day, Henry
Koster, physlcian-ln-ordinary to the
king, complains bitterly of the slight
thus put upon him. He says that for
two whole months the hangman, "who
Is as fit to treat the case as an ass
Is to play the lyre," had the case in
hand and th3 doctor was not asked
his advice. . . . Agaln.f In 161,
Christian V. gave a fee of 200 rigs
dalers to the Copenhagen hangman
for curing the leg of a page. In 1732
Hergen, an executioner In Norway, was
authorized by royal decree to practice
surgery.
Even up to the early years of the
nineteenth century this extraordinary
issoclatlon of surgery with the last
penalty of the law continued. Eclk
Peterson, who was appointed public
executioner at Trondhjem in li'JG,
served as surgeon to an infantry regl
ment In the war with Sweden, and re
tired In 1811 with the rank of surgeon
major. Frederick I. of Prussia chose
his favorite hangman, Coblenz, to be
his physlcian-ln-ordliiary. It might be
suspected that this peculiar combina
tion of functions had its orlglu In a
satirical view of tho art of healing;
but In the records we have quoted we
can trace nothing of the kind. Per
haps the executioner drove a trade In
human fat and other things supposed
to possess marvelous healing proper
tins; he may thus have come to be
credited with skill in healing, though
the association surely represents tho
lowest degree to which the surgeon
has ever fallen in public esteem and
social position.
