ME. CRAWFORD’S CASE—DE. GIBSON’S EXPLO- ‘BATIONS, Loxpom, Jaly 10, 1857. In looking over, some time since, the New York Huming Poat,1 was astonished to find a of son, Professor Charies Bell Gibson. of Richmond, Vir. & ip reply to one of Mrs. Louisa W. Crawford, wife of Crawford, £q., the celebrated American «culptor, of Rome, dated Paris, April 7, 1857, charging me with baving seriously ipjured her husband by an explorative operation. I deem {t necessary, in my own justification, to disabuse the American people on the sub ject; and in order to make my statement perfectly clear and lnatigrue wo ou protearona Cat YF ipo ones requiring no eli batever—I ll give a sbort ht of Mr. Crawford's case. Whilst in Rome last winter! received from Mr. Crawford the following note:— Via Necro, Deo. 2. 1858 My Dean Siu—Wiil you excuse the liberty { take in seking tf you cen make it conveolent boar after 11 o’el ick tor day, to cal! atm: house and, give Lr. Smyth, who it atten ing me, the benefit of ad » Lfemr thin subject Is besomtny ard of your reputation, An much oblige, yours, very truly. — THOMAS ORAWFORD. I replied to Mr. Crawford’s note imme''iately, ant copsented to meet Dr. Smyth at 12 o'clock tho same day. Previous to examination of the case I said to Dr. Smyth, “I reeignéd my professorship ia the University of Penpsy rania, and my practice ip Philadelpt ia, some months since, entirely out of the profession and do not wish io yo in auy case what ever. Iam willing, howe, r, to make an exception in fa vor of Mr, Crawford, inasmuch as I lock upon him us a greet artist, as an honor to my oountrs , have taken a deep ‘az d.abiding Interest 1n his glorious achievements, and shall consider bis lose a national calamity, should auything seri- ously befall him. Sav to him, however, that I cannot en larly attend bim, that my services must be gratuitous, that I will see bim with you as often as can, as a friend aod country man, and will do everything in my power to torve him as lopg as | remain in Rome-—which may be only for short time—for the of hiraseif avd intere-ting family, now seperated from him by the broad Atlantic, and unaware of his danger—whicb, | take fram your account of it, to be imminent.”? ‘After minute examination and inquiry {nto the nature of the case, | remarked to Dr. Smyth:—* It is evident that the eye,’ perfectly sound in Itself, but pushed beyond the walls of the orbit more than half au inch, is acted upon by essure from bebind from a fluid or solid—that if by the rmer, an exploring needle might, by discharging it, cause the eye to reeume {ts natural position, and be fol- lowed by # cure—that if, on the contrary, solid, and, par- ‘icularly, {'of malignant character, no essential snefit can resut from any treatment whatever, aod that the case must nec*ssa iy, in a few months, terminate farally.”? Having obtained Mr, Crawford's cougent (o the use of the exploring needle, an? being requested by Dr. Smyth wo perform the operation, I engaged in it tho next day with every precantion and with the utmost delicacy, and in» few minutes was abie to ascer' with the utmost accu racy, that there was no fluid, but solid tamor, which pot only filled up the posterior part of the orbit, but might ibly have its origin in the brain. In this state of the case T wrote to Dr. Joba W. Francis, of New York, an old ac quaintence, an eminent physician and the uncle of Mra Crawford "| wrote cantiously, no: having fully made uy my mind as to the rea! nature of the tumor, and not wish ing to alarm Mrs Crawford and her friends unnecessarily, To Mr. Hooker, the eminent banker of Rome, and the de voted friend of Mr Crawford, | spoke with love reserve, apd exproseed my apprehension of the cae being likely to terminate dienetrously. Tu a short time [ recetved a reply to my letter from Dr. Francis, and a postacript from Mra. Crawford, thanking me inthe kindest terms for the warm tnterest I bad taken in Mr. Crawford’s care, for my “philan thropy,’” &. | wrote alao to Mr. Willtam Lawrence, ono of the oldest and mos: eminent of the Loo fon #urgeons, ® goniloman of vast experience and particolariy skilibd in affections of the ee and its appondages, stating Mr. C-aw ford’s case and ar king ‘he benoiit of his advice, and re. ceived from him in reply # mos! interesting letter, evi zcing ‘pren’ spgacity, but confessing his inability, from the pocu liarity of the cose and (as complicated symptoms, to give a decided opinion. loved hardly remark thatthe aimall incision mate by me throngh the skin aod murcle of the upper eyelid, to admit of the easy introduction of the needle between the eyeball and upper orbitar plate, and the prncture with the needle paratlel with the base of the orbit, healed in a very few days, and no materia! invoare nience or exacerbation of symptoms fo lowed the opera tion, as has been stated; in ‘act, no injury waa done or covld bo done, aa there were po important parts tn the vicinity of the operation which, with ordinary auateraical knowledge and care, could saffer without being followed immediately by hemorrhage, the formation of mavter the protrcsion of wu fangas, or other visivle ill consequences. The truth is, the tamor, at the time of the operation, was rapidly upon the increase, and the symp toms which soon alter displayed themselves would been developed, there is reason to believe, whether an operation had heen performed of not; incdead, it war not to be ex] 'd that a tumor, such as | soon after discovered it to be, should long remain quiescent. Mr. Crawford's friends were then told distinctly and unequivocally by 1 Smyth and myrelf that little nope remained his covery. Nevertheless, every artist in Rome, except his Pue and semibic friend . Hhonght It impoesi ole that #0 great © man as Crawford could die at all. Crawford himself would never listen to the suggestion that there was danger; and I doubt whether at this moment, low aa [undor- stand he Is, be does not cli anacouny to the belief that be will soon be well. That bis caso bad been of sevoral years standing, be himself would never admit; that Mrs. Crawford knew to the contrary, and confessed it to thelr friend Mr. Terry, I have the authority of that gentiemsn for stating. Ai last it was determined tn a nondescriot some very sensible men—that Mi go to Paris and put himeeif under the care of the most eminent surgeons of that capital. Preriously, however, to his taking th's step, great anxiety was exprersed by some of his friends that the eye and the tumor should be extirpated; and Mr Cra’ |, it wae believed, would williegly have sabmitted to the operation. I etrongly protested against ft, and positively refused to perform it, stating that Mr. Crawford would not live, if perf |, an how; that he ‘ht live if let alone several months, and an opportunity be by aif! Mrs. Crawford and hie family. Mr. th all friends, particularly the artists 1am ture, to my bavit more than to any one elre is Mra, Ore the melaccholy satisfaction of meeting ber husdand on this side of the grave. 1 need bardly remark that Mr. Crawford repaired to Pars, avd pieced himself under ‘he care of surgeons of world wide reputation, al! of waom concurred with me in optoion, and wed of my prac tice to the fullest extent, as the following docaments, kindly furnished, in reply to the following circular ad dressed to them, wi!!! abucdantly show: — Gesevs? 7, 1887.
