  	From West Briton December 26, 1851 - OPERATION WITH THE USE OF CHLOROFORM On the 10th inst., John KISTLE, aged sixty-four years, an outpensioner of Chelsea, residing at Higher Hallankean near Hayle, was compelled to submit, in consequence of a wound which he had received whilst serving in the 40th regiment, to lose his left leg immediately below the knee. Having been put under the influence of chloroform, the amputation was performed by Dr. MILLETT, of Hayle, assisted by his brother, Mr. MILLETT, of Penzance, in half a minute. It appears that Kistle, at an early age, enlisted as a substitute in the Cornwall and Devon militia, and about two years afterwards joined the 40th regiment. He accompanied that regiment to South America, and was present at the bombardment of Monte Video, &c., and having got wounded was, at the age of twenty-four years, and after six years' servitude, made an out-pensioner of Chelsea, at the rate of sixpence per day. via http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:BVtAKNRwRKIJ:freepages.rootsweb.com/~phillack/genealogy/newspapers.htm+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=uk&client=firefox-b-d
