From p. 8. par. 1.

Justification 2d. Medical Practice.

Any thing done to a man in the view of benefiting
him in point of health is no injury done with lawful cause although it be done
without his consent; or even against his consent: provided
that in both cases it be successful, and more proper upon the whole than any
other that was about to be applied. As if a man be bitten
in the finger by a dog known to be mad; and you, to
save him from the infection, seize him; and in spite of his
resistance cut if off. If, by the opinion of persons expert
in medicine, it should appear that the dog was (unquestionably) mad; that in such a case immediate amputation
is a certain cure; and that it is not adviseable to trust
to any other; what you have done to him is no injury done with lawful cause.. See
