Testimony OF DocroR FRANZ SIMON.
found the body ot he girl wing wher.
!, now does, Monday, The I'd Of Ma,, 1854
Found Il wound on tbe iefl side between
'he fifth and sixth ribs. one and one haf
inches distant from the breast bone. The |
wound itself was nearly round. excep, IN.
right and lower side, which made J. a lit,
lie angulsr in shape BY the use of the
probe, I discovered that the wound was
made from the left, righ in The direction
'oNards The right. through The breas, bone
or rSr'Iiage connecting the ribs TO the
brea.t boae. When we opened her chss,
we found the ssrk Of the hear, perfectly
Fl lei up with coagulated blood. Af,er re-
moving this blood from the sack. we found
a wound IN the apex OF the heart, in the
right ventiicle After removing.the lung.
we to'i"Wei the direction of ina wound.
and found on the right side If the ver,e-
hre stipulation of blood, which We follow
Ell until We found the wound again be- |
tween the eighth and ninth rib on The |
right and back sides. Followed that
wound with the probe and could nene
trate only about half an inch in the feshy !
part Of tie II ght side ard back Of the de |
ceased so we 'urned the body around and |
made ncisiens frotH the outside 10 the end !
of The probe, entering !..om the inside, and |
found sngutatlon Of blood l.Sere, TOO. and |
We proved thai this WAS the exte"t Of the
wound. and must have been made by stab |
bng with some Instrument. In NV Judo |
ment. the Instrument must have been near
~ round. The wound was such that i,
must, IN nv Judgment, have produced al
most instantaneous death /, could moi
have been done bv the deceased. and tn.
instrument disposed Of before DIVING: i,
could not have been a sho, wound for The
reason that the clothes worn by IN. do.
ceased at the time Of her death are p-rf,
rated undoubtedly by The same instru,
nert. and if a shot or bullet, the same
could he found on examination. The raw
eIlngs IT the dress would also have follow
Ell the direction Of the wound which was
not the case here. (The Doctor then ex-
hib''ed to rhe jury the heart of the de-
ceased, and .wore hat it WAS as foaud at
The post m0rtem exsmiuarion.)
