Excerpt from The Medical Times and Gazette, Vol. 1
Facta non verba might have been Liston's motto. He never was a fluent lecturer. His sentences were short, broken up, abrupt, colloquial; but they were remembered - a higher virtue than belongs to the efforts of many a voluble orator.
That he did many wonderful Surgical feats is as mere a truism as that Napoleon fought many wonderful battles. But we recollect one which is of some historical interest. One day it was noised abroad that Liston was going to remove a ball from the head of the thigh bone of an old foreigner which had been imbedded for a great number of years, and had resisted the Operating skill of Dupuytren and other Conti neutal Surgeons. The theatre was accordingly crowded, and after a time a greyheaded. Thin old man, in a red nightcap.
