Certain Missing Testimony

A goodly proportion Of The Herald s
readers are in favor Of the purging of the
morals Of the city. The trial of "Dr."
Hastings presumably increases the dan
ger from such practitioners. In view of
the result Of that trial, can The Herald
give explanation Of the absence of
important testimony published at the
inquest or first examination of witnesses,
notably that of DR.. Dora King? Twelve
good men, and true" decided no murder
had been done. Now we wait COR twelve
good men and true" to decide whether
such practitioners are amenable to the
laws of the commonwealth.
