The Morning Session.
DR.. Charles d. Glass of Deer Lodge.
who was one of those who conducted
the autopsy on Cullinane's body .Aug.
ID at Deer Lodge, was the first nit-
ness called. He said he had practiced
medicine and surgery for 20 years.
Three wounds We're found on the
body OF Cullinane," said he. "One was
in the face to the left side of the nose
coming out on the other side of the head
below the occipital bone. l do not know
what became of the bullet. 1t was a
large bullet. but the exact caliber [
could not tell. A second wound was in
the back below the last two ribs
and about two and half inches to the
left of the spine" The witness here
Illustrated the exact location of the
wound on chart showing rear view
of the body Of man with back open.
The bullet continued DR.. Glass,
had passed through the body from
point about at the last dorsal vertebrae
and had lodged about one inch to the
left of the navel. In it's passage ii had
cut off the renal artery and had pass d
through the left kidney, lodging he
tween the layers of the flesh. Its course
had been pretty straight. In it's course
it had penetrated the cavity in which
the stomach is located. The bullet was
located by blue spot on the skin un-
der which it had lodged. This bullet
was extracted and taken charge Of ty
DR.. OWings."
The witness was asked his opinion rs
to which wound had been administered
first. He said. without hesitation. it
was the wound in the head. after the
defense had objected to the question.
the objection had been orerruled and
an exception noted.
To the question "On what do You
base your belief that this wound wa:
the first administered? the defense
made similar objection, but was over
ruled. The witness replied that mas
much as the wound in the back would
cause instant death and cause the body
to fall face downward it would be I'M
possible to deliver the wound in he
face afterward. DR.. Glass stated his
opinion that death had taken place
about three days before the autopsy
had been held The defense did nos de-
sire to cross examine.
Dr.. J. f. Owings Of Deer Lodge, who
had assisted in the autopsy, testified
corroborating the testimony of DR..
Glass. He said also that when the
bullet was removed from the flesh of
the abdomen he had taken charge of it,
weighed it. found it to be of l7s grains
weight, marked it and turned it over
TO the custody of the prosecuting at
torney
That is the ball" said he when it
was presented to him for Identification.
The defense cross-examined him as
to his markings, but he was positive
of them.
