Excerpt from American Edition of the British Encyclopedia, or Dictionary of Arts and Sciences, Vol. 12: Comprising an Accurate and Popular View of the Present Improved State of Human Knowledge

In amputating the leg, the bones should be sawn through, about four inches below the patela. The tourniquet is applied in the lower part of the thigh. After cutting through the skin, which should be drawn upwards, it must be reflected from the flat surface of the tibia, and front ofthe leg, so as to cover those parts which could not be covered by any large muscle. The calf is then to be cut through, by an oblique incision slanting upwards; the rest ofthe muscles, and the interosseous ligament, should be divided by a double-edged knife, called a catlin, and the bones sawn, after the previous application of a double tailed retractor.
