He gave a very frank THE ERRAND OF MERCY 127 and honest account of the chance manner in which his first doubts of the necessity for the scalding oil treatment were aroused, and of his further experiments in le...aving the wounds to nature. It was on his expedition with the Army to Turin in 1536, when he was only twenty years of age, that there were such a great number of wounded that the cauldron of boiling oil prepared by the surgeons to cauterize all the gunshot wounds was entirely exhausted.
