oner Lippincott when the father applied
for a certificate of death so that his child
could be buried. He was questioned and
the coroner discovered that the only
treatment the child had received during
it's illness of four days, was the faith
cure, or mental impression" admins
tered by the father and another disciple,
w. r. Randall of Philadelphia.
When the child was taken ill on Fri
day 1t complained of pains in it's throat.
but no effort was made to discover the
nature of her malady, as Christian
scientists, the father says, recognize no
classes Of disease.
The coroner, who is a prominent prac-
titioner of the old school, recognizes dis
ease and distinctions in diseases, and he
was also aware that the law requires an
investigation in all cases of death with
out medical attendance, so he refused to
issue a certificate of death.
He notified County Physician Jones,
who agreed that the stand he had taken
was a proper one, and then it was de-
cided to hold an inquest. An autopsy
was made and the report was submitted
to the meteorological laboratory at
Princeton university. 1t was found that
death was due either to membraneous
Group or diphtheria.
After the inquest in the case is held,
the coroner says he will ask the grand
jury to indict the child's father.
Another child in the house had diph-
iberia, and County Physician Jones had
hot argument with Kirby before the
physician was allowed to treat the little
one. The doctor finally took charge of
the house and placed officers to guard it.
Kirby says that the sick baby will die
and that nothing can save it.-New York
