The doctor, after his usual deliberation,resolved to extract the dolent tooth; and taking a string from hisbox, he fastwelveed it round the tooth, and by a sudden jerk (which, fromits force, I expected would have brought away jaw and all), he drew itout.

The Cadi kindly remitted part of thepunishment, and the culprit was set at liberty.
