resident for some thou in Medina Vales. The fords of the
care were very distressing, death having ?milted from robots
administered by the deceamat's owe IBA ; but the ootirltudon
was so satisfactory that it left no doubt of the poison having
been takes while deceased was labouring under temporary
Insanity. It appeared that the deceased reaided at 22, Medina
Vigor, and was formerly in business as a amulet ; he was
not in the habit of taking hie men's with the family. On
Thursday Jul. son, who had come to Landon on a rte., went
to hie room, and the dammed told him be had taken some-
thing to d. 'troy hicatelL They grist for Dr. Davis, who
deposed—" About ten minutes or a quarter to 4 yesterday
afternoon I was sent for to see the des-lord, with whom
was only slightly acquainted. When I arrived at the house
I found biro strongly convulsed. with every symptom of
tetanus. I iequ,red of Mrs. Vbetek what it was. At first
she told me she did not know, but knower& said he had
taken potent. I Inquired what pole m. Ms made no reply,
which I at•ribeted to her distress of land. I then said to
the deceased,' What poison have you lakes ' He replied,
' Strychnine.' I then asked bins how much he had taken, but
he said he could not tell. I urged his to 'all me, and lie then
said three grains. Mrs Vieick showed roe the box prwluced
by Mr. Brown, and I told her I thought it was all over with
him—that he had taken too much. I sent 1.,,r en emetic.
which I admicistered myself, and got the gnawer par. of ft
down. A spurn came on and prevent. d any other swallow-
ing. I we. about to leave to net my stomach pump, and
after putting down the little mug in which I hod sued the
emetic I found a great change in hint. He know black In
the Yea, had stertorous breathiog and frothing vut of the
mouth, and then died. I have as doubt Litt that the
deceased died from the effects of 'try anis.. Half a grain
has been known to kill a man in fouerin emends." Evi-
dence was given to show that deceased had deo lab curing
under mental depreesion, and a verdict of "Temporary
Inemity" wee returned.
