There are sentences in "Nature" which are as exalted as the language of one who is just coming to himself after having been etherized. Some of these expressions sounded to a considerable part of his early readers like the vagaries of delirium. Yet underlying these excited outbursts there was a general tone of serenity which reassured the anxious.

Æsculapius!" he commanded, and I was unceremoniously removed to the room wherein I had had my interview with the great doctor, where I was immediately etherized and my brain operated upon.

In April, 1876, Mrs. Jordan fell and badly fractured her hip. She was then seventy-seven years old. On account of her age she could not well be etherized, nor endure the repeated necessary resetting of the bones, and consequently they grew together irregularly. Her hip-joint was stiff, so that she was never able to walk without the support of a cane or crutch.
The French fishing fleet had disappeared. I could not help saying to Brande before we turned in: "You expect us, I suppose, to believe that the explosion was really caused by a drop of water?" "Etherized," he interrupted. "Certainly I do. You don't believe it on what grounds?" "That it is unbelievable." "Pshaw! You deny a fact because you do not understand it. Ignorance is not evidence."
