Then the whole brain was taken out and the nerve which caused all the pain waa literally tom away. It was with terrible difficulty that the nerve waa disentangled from the brain, but Sir Victor's hand never shook the whole time, and with as nr.uch calmness as though bandaging a finger, he replaced the brain, filled up the hole and sewed up the open scalp wound.
