Excerpt from A Debate on Is Vivisection Immoral, Cruel, Useless and Unscientific?
But Mr. Paget may tell us, as he has said before at one of his semi-private meetings, that he has never heard of a case of intentional cruelty. I will not bandy words on the word intentional: it is enough for me that there is cruelty, and that if Mr. Paget knows nothing about it it is time he made himself acquainted with the facts. (hear, hear.) But what Mr. Paget does not know there were some Vivisectors candid enough to admit. Prof. Pembrey, for instance, told the Royal Commis sion: I think painful experiments are necessary; I mean pain ful experiments as against experiments under anaesthetics. A common-sense view should be taken of this question and pain must be admitted. I admit I have done painful experiments, and I am not ashamed of it. They are absolutely necessary, And yet Mr. Paget told a Torquay audience a month ago that he had never heard of any. (laughter.) Professor Thane told the Royal Commission: Animals experimented on under Certificate B. Do suffer severely while under observa tion after the experiment. And in some cases, under Certificate A, the injection is followed by great pain and suffering. Dr. Power, Chief Medical Officer of the Home Office, admitted no doubt but that pain or uneasiness will afterwards arise in cases where disease is the result of the experiment Further, Professor Thane declared in making fistulas into pancreas, gall bladder, stomach, and so on, it is quite likely that the animals suffer to a certain extent. Those were vivisectors' own statements, and yet Mr. Paget had never heard of any such thing. Those are grave admissions, and I deny the right of any man to do evil that good might come. (hear, hear.)
