Summary[edit]

Description
English: In 1901, Ella Downey sought a divorce from her husband Frank on the grounds that Frank had kept his severed arm after its amputation, and was using it as a bludgeon - "whenever he gets in a tantrum, he brandishes it around the house, knocking dishes off the table and beating the dog with it."
