 more regular than in the upper jaw. The first of the large teeth on the right side in | the lower jaw had cavity in it in the up | per jaw the first of the two front teeth to- l ward the right had cavities in their side which had been filled with gold. Of the teeth on the left side, the one most to the left had cement-filled cavity. Other details about teeth were given.
 then examined the brain. The blood vessels had more blood in them than usual The brain was otherwise healthy. I next ex- am1ned the organs in the chest. The heart was healthy. It contained but little blood,- most in the left side. The lungs were well filled with air and contained no water,-were healthy. The wind pipe covered with a little frothy mucous and in it's upper portion contained 0 few partic:e of sand. The tongue and throat were healthy in appear ance. There was 8 little reddish fluid in both chest cavities. It was not measured-l should think less than half pint.
 then examined the stomach This con- tained about two ounces of thickish gray
 fluid mixed with fragments of partly digest ed food Among these were bits of lean and fat meat, whortleberries, fragments of mush- rooms. The stomach was perfectly healthy in appearance. Its gulet contained little mucous and in it's upper three inches were
 particles of sand. The intes ines contained considerable partly digested food of the same character as that in the stomach. The in
 testines were healthy in appearance. The spleen the liver and the kidneys were
 healthy in appearance. The womb was of natural size, was bent forward and slightly
 to the left side. The left ovary was healthy, the right ovary contained a cystic tumor about as large as 8 large English walnut. A portion of the lower lip containing the wound WIS removed for examination. Ire served then for subsequent examination about of the brain, about of the healt, about of both lungs, the whole of the tongue and the windpipe, about of the
 liver, about } of the spleen, both kidneys, the stomach and contents and gullet, and the in testines with their contents. These parts
 were placed in jars which were sealed and taken by Dr. Painter and myself to the med ical college, placed in closet to which I had the only key and the door was sealed by three seals by myself I omitted to say that I examined the external generative organs,
 but about those i;arts decay far ad- vanced that I could not determine whether violence had been used or not. On the evening of August I took to New York the jars containing the stomach and gulet, the lungs and windpipe-the stomach and gullet in answer to MT Jones and their contents in jar, another jar containing the lungs and windpipe and another jar con taining the generative organs-three jars in all. 1 examined through g microscope first the generative organs with view of deter mining the presence or absence of semen ; 1 found none I examined the lungs and wind pipe to find out how far down the particles of sand had gone; I found them only in the \ upper half of the windpipe; there was no sand in the lungs. I then examined DOT tion of the contents of the stomach to deter mine the nature of the food
 Mir. Jones-This was a microscopical ex- | animation of all these?
 Yes, sir and see if l could find traces of any poison l found none. 1 further ex- ' amined the wound on the lip and found no traces of inflammation about it. Inquiry from Mir. Jones as to the word ''traces."
 Mir. Doolittle replied
 Mir. Jones spoke about arsenic. MT. Doolttle-I never said arsenic. To the court in reply to court-Witness ga d he found no traces of poison in the con- tents of the stomach
 Witness-These organs were then brought back to New Haven by me, and placed under lock and seal again in the Medical Col lege in the same place that they were before, inside of a laboratory; on the 14th of August,
 by permission of the foreman of the coron- er's jury, delivered to Dr. Hotchkiss the keys of the chest and laboratory in order that he might give certain jars to the chemist, it being necessary for me to leave town; show ed Dr. Hotchkiss-yes, all were brought back
 
 bottle in New York pointed out to Dr. Hotchkiss three jars, one containing the brain, another the stomach and gullet and the third portion of the liver; on the evening of August 18th received the keys from Dr. Hotchkiss, and on the morning of the 18th he went with me to the Medical College and verified the seal I found that the three jars which I had indicated were gone; on the 18th took to Professor Chittenden, at the Scientific school, jar containing the intes- tines and their contents the jar containing the lungs, spleen and heart-those portions that l had reserved; also a jar containing the kidneys; on September 9th I took to Professor Chittenden the jar containing the tongue and throat, and jar containing the generative organs; these then passed out of my care and keeping; the jars were carefully washed with distilled water before I used them.
 Mir. Doolittle-Doctor, distilled water is free from any foreign substance, is it not?
 Form of question objected to by MT. Jones.
 Mir. Doolittle was surprised that Mr. Jones should object.
 Mr. Jones held that the witness must be asked in the usual way.
 The court thought the witness should go on.
 Mir. Jones said he understood witness to say city water.
 MT. Doolittle said no, he said distilled wa ter.
 Mir. Jones-That all comes from not rais- ing your voices at that end
 Witness-January 7, 19S2 met Prof Chittenden at the Evergreen cemetery, where | I saw raised from the grave casket contain ing dead body. This was taken to the of flee of the superintendent and there exam l ined in the presence of Prof Chittenden, Dr. Whittemore Messrs. Fox and Blydenburgh, ] the superintendent of the cemetery and the 1 undertaken, MT. Stahl. The body WAS taken out of the casket. The burial clothes were removed, it was placed on the board laid on l the table and I then identified the body and | found it to be the same I had examined in | August, 1881. The body was weighed-I did | not take the weight-and I delivered to Prof. l Chittenden the following parts: The dia- | phragm the left arm, the left shoulder re- | moved at the shoulder joint the right leg 1 taken off at the hip joint the thigh bone | with the flesh attached to it, portions of the | skin and flesh rom the back the left side, 1 and portions of the skin and flesh from the | right breast. These parts l placed ip jars 1 furnished by Prof. Chittenden. 1 saw him put these in box and he took them to the 1 Scientific school.
 He took this jar to the s. s. s. where I l saw him put them in a close room. Yes, I the features and body as the same I had seen in August, the same parts had been remove ed from it. found a strip of sticking plaster on the lower lip which we put there in August where the lip had been cut the hair dark and abundant, and the teeth were in all respects similar to those which I have described.
 Mr Bush-Now to go back. Were there there anything in the ap pearance of the body to indicate death by drowning? There was nothing
 What indications, if any, were absent which you would have expected to have found if the person had been drowned? ?
 Objected to by MT. Cassidy.
 MT. Bush-What indications would you have expected to find I should have no expectations. I should await developments.
 In death by drowning is water usually found in the lungs?
 Objected to in it's form by Mir. Cassidy.
 The court held it a proper question to an expert and instructed the witness to state in lis own way the signs.
 Witness-In cases of drowning there are lsually two sets of signs, external indications md internal, and both these sets of signs 7ary The external signs are froth at the lose and mouth; 8 roughness of the skin, | lnown as goose skin, a bleaching and wrink- ( ing of the palms of the hands and soles of he feet. Sometimes there particles of l and or weeds caught in the clenched hand or I beneath the finger nails. These are the moro important external signs of drowning In he large proportion of cases we find inter I lally some of the following signs Water in he windpipe and lungs; water in the gullet
