BosroN. Dec. 12-The brief extract OF the
letter which Note Broker Henry L. Norcross
wrote to his mother before he disap-
peared. which was printed In The SUN
to-day. Is all the information as to its
contents which the public Is likely to get for
the present. Mr. and Mrsl Norcross positively
refuse to divuIGe further their sons farewell
message. Mrs. Norcross says she will destroy
II before she allows II to be made public.
It ia a bulky document. and IL is said
to contain an elaborate statement Of
the plans which crowded the young
mans brain. While tho parents refuse to
reveal the contents OF the letter they say that
II satisfies them that their son was the Sage
bomb thrower. In fact they were convinced
before the letter was found.

on when he left his homo in somerville

In his Boston office on Saturday. This is

The report that Inspector Byrnes has commu-
nicated with them IL contradicted By the In
spector.
Coroner MESSENGER thinks that the beard on
the dead mans face. to Judge from its present
appearance. could not well have been grown In
less than three or four months. Another ply
stefan. who had examined the beard with
special care. concurred In this opinion.
It was stated yesterday that when the medi-
cal experts give their testimony at the inquest
In regard to the dead mans brain. they will
announce that the man had been insane for Q
considerable period before his death. The
brain. according to the statement gives un-
mtstakable signs Of a protracted N entail disease
which the man could hardly have concealed.
The left hemisphere Of the brain is said to be
more diseased than the right. The condition
gives evidence that the disease was one Of
long standing. and the brain resembles those
that lunatic asylums supply tothe microscope
That the insanity was recent and sudden is
said to be put out Of the question by the testi-
mony OF the microscope.
