Mathew Clydesdale

A collier of this name was hanged for murder, early 19th cent, the body was given to Glasgow University and used for an experiment applying galvanic batteries. This demonstration, in front of a packed audience ,resulted in Clydesdale coming to life, terminated by swift application of a scalpel. Clydesdale was from Lanarkshire somewhere? and that was the end of public demonstrations. Any info?
