sensational part of the inquest was late
in the afternoon, when evidence was in
troduced to show that medicine had been

The first steps in the investigation were
taken during the forenoon, when an au-
topsy was performed by Drs. F. c.
Thayer and J. F. Hill at the undertaking
rooms of Nudd & Smell, where the re-
mains had been taken. The result Of the
autopsy will remain secret until the

time the girl was sick she made no state

that she had been thrashed by her par
