Excerpt from Philadelphia Medical Times, Vol. 6: A Bi-Weekly Journal of Medical and Surgical Science; April 29, 1876

The vagina was tamponed with com presses dipped in ice-water, and the patient soon came to, complaining of great pain in the thighs and buttocks. In four or nve days she had entirely recovered, another examination showing that the wound had healed.

In another instance a peasant pressed into the vagina of his wife, an idiot, the upper part of a wineglass, the stem of which was broken off. Twenty-four hours later, when she was first seen, the belly was much enlarged, her linen soaked with blood no urine had been passed for thirty-six hours. The glass was removed with the aid of a Sims speculum and a pair of forceps, but was broken during this operation, and the vagina. Was again lacerated. The patient, however, recovered, with no unpleasant consequences.
