The Gazette and the Union are rather
severe on our undertaking coroner for not
ordering a post norton, in the case of Me-
Anaul, before proceeding with the testi-
mony. Our undertaking coroner has
some queer ways-but one of his ideas is
always clear enough, viz: that it is the
business of Coroner Knox to furnish jobs
for Undertaken Knox, Of course, in 9TH
er places, coroners know that it is their
duty to hunt evidence, hear everything,
keep their own counsel, and manage the case
themselves,-but our coroner seems to
think that all he has to do is to get jury,
and then let the jury run the machine
while his thoughts return to the undertak-
ing business.
