From a male farm-labourer aged 19 years who while ploughing in Australia was overthrown by his bullocks taking fright, fell in front of his plough and, the coulter entering below the mandible, he was dragged a distance of fully 20 yards. A lacerated wound extended from the right mastoid process to the left angle of the mandible where it was joined by a lacera¬tion from the left labial commissure.
