Adventures of Working Men. From the Notebook of a Working Surgeon

This interesting work presents short stories narrated by a surgeon who described his bizarre experiences with various patients.
Excerpt
"I have had patients enough in a busy life as a working surgeon, you may be sure, but of all that I have had, young or old, give me your genuine, simple-hearted working man; for whether he be down with an ordinary sickness or an extraordinary accident, he is always the same—enduring, forbearing, hopeful, and with that thorough faith in his medical man that does so much towards helping on a cure."
