{{Style S-Small capitals|For}} this purpose, we used a tape one and one-half inch wide. First of all, we thoroughly secured with it both of Brediff's wrists, by making on each of his hands a tape bracelet, tight enough to shut out every possibility of his freeing his hands from them, and yet sufficiently loose not to interfere with the circulation of the blood. Each of the bracelets had four knots. Through these bracelets we passed the tape, and placed Brediff on a comfortable, low chair, with a high back to it, and. passing the tape under the front part of the seat, we crossed it over to the back part of the chair, and threading the end of our tape through the chink between the castor and one of the legs, tied it there with a strong knot Then we threaded in the same way the castor of the other back leg, and secured the tape again with a knot. After this we wound up with the same tape Brediff’s left arm, above the elbow, then, crossed it over his breast, and tied up his right arm. After that, we secured him well to the back of the chair, by winding the tape round his body several times, and then tying it on his left arm again, we lowered the tape down once more and passing it another time under the seat, brought it out at the front, and finally secured the end well with several knots to both the bracelets on his wrists. We used another tape to secure the legs and feet of the medium. | {{Style S-Small capitals|For}} this purpose, we used a tape one and one-half inch wide.
