By the Court. Stated to Mr.. Hurry that he
could not live and then told his wife he had
but few hours to live.
By District Attorney. The bowels were in
a very high state of inflammation. So was
the lower portion of the peritoaeuaa, which
was also soft. The abdominal muscles were
almost mortified bladder thick and indurated.
These phenomena must have been caused by
conclusion of some torm-kick, stroke, blow,
or bruise, cannot tell which. Cam OF see
how it could be by any disease. Inhamma-
ton was the immediate cause Of Calahan's
death, The remote cause was the blow.
