Abscess in a sailor's forearm from a musket-ball wound in a naval battle, 1815. The ball entered at the wrist and exited near the elbow, but the wound, treated in a filthy ship's hospital, became a suppurating sore. Arm of Charles Challoner, Marine. Handcoloured copperplate engraving after an illustration by John Bell from his own Principles of Surgery, as they Relate to Wounds, Ulcers and Fistulas, Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme and Brown, London, 1815.
