The shot had gone right through the knee and broken the knee-pan. As his second bowed over him, Belleville whispered, with broken eyes and trembling lips: "My legacy! do not forget my legacy! I believe I shall die; this pain is horrible." The Frenchman took the paper from his pocket and concealed it "I will be avenged," said Belleville, with a convulsive smile, then sank into unconsciousness.
"Where are you hurt?" she answered, with a little authoritative wave of the hand, as if she waved my words away. She had firm, fine hands. "I have injured the patella I mean the knee-pan," I replied. She smiled indulgently. She did not take the trouble to tell me that my lesson in elementary anatomy was at all superfluous. But when I saw her smile I said: "That was unconscious cerebration."
This rotation is seen while the arm is being raised from the horizontal to the vertical position, and is effected by the cooperation of the trapezius with the serratus magnus muscles. The patella, or knee-pan, the two condyles of the tibia, the tubercle on the tibia for the attachment of the ligament of the patella, and the head of the fibula are the chief bony landmarks of the knee.
There's one joist pinnin' my left shoulder, and my leg's jammed under another; and stir I cannot." Sam lit another match. "I was fearin' " he began, but broke off. "If you could manage, ma'am, to draw up your knee an inch or so or if you wouldn' mind my takin' a pull " "Not at all," said Mrs. Lobb. "I'm used to bein' pinched."

Trove felt the same old protuberance on Tunk's leg. "Swatted me right in the knee-pan. Put both feet on my chest, too. Lord! I'd be coughin' up blood all the while if I wa'n't careful." "And why did you leave?" "Served me a mean trick," said Tunk, frowning. "Letishey went away t' the village t' have a tooth drawed, an' t'other one locked me up all day in the garret chamber.
Little closed sacs, called synovial sacs or bursæ, similarly lined and containing fluid, are also found in special places between two surfaces where much motion is required. Without these, the constant motion of the knee-pan and its tendons in walking would produce undue friction and heat and consequent inflammation.
