VIM. l.. Hunt had told her that when
any OF the patients died he cut I'D the

! Harrison Stanford of philadelphia,
who was called by the defence in the
trial OF DIR. Percy d. Mcleod, who is
charged with being accessory in the
case OF the death of Susan Geary. Mrs,
Stanford declared that Hunt, who has
| Headed guilty in the present case as
accessory. was known in PHILADELPHIA
as Or. Roberts" and that he had lived
III hcr mothers house for nearly a
year. Witness identified a picture OF
Mrs. Mary S. Dean. who Is wanted as
the principal in the case Of Miss
C'eary S death as that of the woman
who HAD posed as the wife Of Hunt In
Philadelphia at a time when the lat
ter was known as DR.. Richards.
DIR. Mcleod, the defendant, then took
the stand in his own behalf His testi-
mony Was a sweeping denial of the
charges made against him. He said the
only time he had dissected a human
body was when he had dissected one
half Of a body. He had never visited
the Winthrop street house where the
Ieary girl died. he said, until he had
been called there on the morning of
Sept. H. On this occasion he had been
met by woman whom he was later
told was Mrs. Dean and conducted into
Miss Gearys room. Upon leaving he
told Mrs. Dean that an immediate op-
Grafton was necessary to save the
girls life. Complying with the request
of Mrs Dean he had called DR. Pettee
by telephone and had requested him to
assist i'll the operation upon the girl
to save her life. DR.. Pettee told him
later that he had been to the Winthrop
street house before. Witness testified
further that the masks worn by them
were prepared by Mrs. Dean by whom
they were removed before the operation
was concluded.
DIR. Mcleod said that everything that
surgical skill could suggest was done
for Miss Geary. On the night of the OPP
GRAFTON he had returned to the Win
thrOp street house and called again,
Friday and Saturday, as we'll as OH
Sunday He found the patients condi-
ton excellent and it appeared as IL
she would recover. On Monday morn
ing. however. there were evidences of
peritonitis and the doctor concluded
that the girl would die within "a or 48
hours.
Il told Mrs. Dean that the girl was
going to die" said DR.. Mcleod, "and
that l would have her notify the girls
people at once"
Witness said that he learned. Tues

had died. DR.. Mcleod then proceeded
to give detailed account Of his move

DIR. MCLEOD TEST|F|ES
In Own Defense and Flatly Repu-
dates Statements OF Previous
WitneSseS==AnOther Arrest.

| Boston, Dec. 1.-The famous suit
case mystery of Boston is tonight, be.
ing considered by jury which will de.
| t"rn,ine whether DR.. Percy D. Mcleod
is guilty of being an accessory TO an il
Legal operation upon Susan Geary, the
Cambridge chorus girl. whose dis
mentered body was thrown into the
| harbor.
Tcdays proceedings furnished a dra.
matte climax to an already sensational
| case. DIR. Mcleod testified in mis- own
defence and stated elnphatically that
he had not dismembered the body of
| the chorus girl. He denied that he had
ever had any connection with the RiSh-
| op Offices. where the illegal operation is
| iileged to have been performed, and
| SWore that he had never been inside
| the Winthrop street house until sum-
mcned to perform an operation to save
Miss Geary's life. According to DIR. Nc
IieOd'S testimony, he was called to the
| Winthrop street house by DR.. John H.
Pe;tee, who u few days ago, testified
that he was summoned there by DR..
Mcleod. Or. McLeod's testimony was a
general denial of all the charges
against him. He testified that his only
connection with The case Was the per-
forming Of an operation known as lap
arotomy. the only hope. he claimed of
saving the Wolnan'S life
After Dr. Mcleod had completed his
testimony, few witnesses We're called
fer rebuttal and then counsel proceeded
with their arguments.
Attorney James Fl. Naney of counsel
for the defence. argued that DIR. Nc
Leod was an innocent participant in
the case. that his only connection with
it was actuated by the highest motives,
the desire 10 save human life. Mr..
Valley declared that the dismember-
mcnt was The work of Howard. or Hunt
as he is known, and that Hunt was also
the person who performed the first OPP
GRAFTON on the victim of the tragedy.
MIR. Valley also charged that Dr. Pettee
had called upon DR.. Mcleod for assist
ance and then had incriminated the
latter in the desire to save his own rep
utation.
District Attorney Machael J. Sughrue
in summing up for the government,
charged that DR.. Mcleod was intimate
ly associated with a notorious band of
malpractitioners. He said that the tes-
on which the defence had attempted to
cast discredit, must be accepted. He
characterized DR.. Mcleod as a cool,
phlcSmatic person. skilled in surgery
and dissection. and said that he was
the only kind of person who could have
dismembered the body in so skillful a
manner
Judge Stevens. in his charge to the
jury, rccited the various counts in the
indictment and defined to the jurymen
the phases of the case that would war
rant verdict of guilty in the event
that they considered that certain allie
cations had been proven.
The case was given to the jury at
AS P. M. The court was later cleared
and instructions were issued that If a
verdict should be reached during the
evening it should be sealed and the
finding reported at $50 o'clock, tomor-
row morning.
