taker, which might account for its

true. He admits that embalminp
fluid was used along with other dis

were taken by an experienced under
taker in preparing the body for burial,
but that arterial injection Of the fluid
had been made at any time, rs is
usual in embalming, has not the
slightest foundation in fact.
