From The Fredericksburg Start
The Wilson Inquest.
THE JCRY'S STATEM%NT-T!IE STOMACH TO BIZ
ASALYzED-C COST OF SUCH WORK.
In the interview held with Lewis Z. VIII
son, his wife, and other, by reporter OF
the star, and published in our last issue,
Wilson pronounced those who had contro-
ycrted the statements he made TO us "in-
iernal liars" We refrained from CRITICS.
ing the remarkable statements Of Wilson
and his wife made to our reporter, and we
shall continue TO TO 50 until it is aScertained
whether there is reason 10 believe that the
boy was poisoned; but ii is due to Dr. Car
michael and 10 Mr.. Millhouser that we say
that their statements, made TO the Star and
contradictcd by Wilson, are fully verified
by Wilson's own testimony taken before
the Coroner (oi which we were ignorant at
the timc), lis will be shown By the following:
STATEMENT.
At c0roncr's inquest held on the body
Of the child Of Lewis Wilson on the 14th
inatant the said Lewis Wilson testified, on
oath, that his motive III telling DR.. spots
wood W. Carmichael that he suspected Mrs.
| Wilson of having poisoned the child was
! that he (tnc Doctor) might use remedies 20
undo the effects OF the poison.
! 1Signcdl W. II. Mason, Coroner; +. w.
Johnston. William II. Russell, Il. j. Eek
cnrodc, Jamcs Roach, j. ". Adams, ii.
i. Rowe, jury.
II is also due to Dr.. :. W. Carmichael
! that we should say that he did not carry the
stomach Of The deceased child to Richmond,
and was not priyy, directly or indirectly, in
| furnishing the information to the aGthori-
ties which led 10 the inquest. His sole cor-
nection with the matter was to give his
sworn testimony before The Coroncr's jury,
where he was legally summoned.
Last Wednesday {. j.. Gore was placed
in charge OF the stomach OF the deceased
and sent TO Richmond, where it will he ans
lived by the state Chemist. DR.. William H..
Taylor.
Mr. Gore tclcgraphed TO Coroner Mason
"Wednesday, asking Instructions; the chenl-
| l>t having informed him that the cost CT tie
ANALYSIS would be $500. CT which the State
would I've charged SO and the corporation
the balance. Mr.. Gore was instructed to
| proceed with the Investigation; and the
| public await the result with anxiety.
| The general wish is that there NAY be no
reason for Su>pec,nS any on: OF poisonin"
| young Wilson, and that all the suspicious
have grown out CT ignorance and other than
criminal intentions on The part cf those
who should have protected the boy.
