he said laboring under the delusion
that DR.. Wayson was prosecuting
him. He had told witness that Way
son had stolen his leprosy cure and
when asked why he had shot up the
Wayson homestead replied that that
was the only way to get even.
Witness classified the disease as
paranoia and stated that It was caus-
ed by the constant use of cocaine and
opium. He here entered into the his
tory of Atcherley's case as he knew
it from current gossip. relating some
of his eccentricities. He told of
how Dr. Wayson had reasoned with
the sick man and endeavored to dis
abuse his mind, all to no effect. Wit
ness believed Atcherley had been in
his extreme condition about a month
From this point witness went into
details regarding paranoia and his
reasons for saying that Atcherley
had EN- DR.. Emerson had told
him that in Jail Atcherley had used
cocaine and opium-two to three
grains of the former and Z to 10
grains Of the latter; and that he also
used morphine. Prior TO hearing of
his using these drugs, however, wit
ness had formed the opinion that At
/ cherley was insane The information
from Emerson and others merely
confirmed what he already felt GER
tain was the case.
From this point the witness was
subjected to considerable cross-fring
from the attorneys, which merely
brought out the fact that he knew
nothing positive about Atcherley's
trouble with the Board of Health re-
garding position in Kona nor of his
earlier bouts with DR.. Wayson He
concluded on redirect examination by
saying that he considered any man
was menace to the community who
would threaten and attempt to kill in
this manner without more of an in
jury
On cross examination by Attorney
Magoon witness repeated much of
the above. explaining more in detail
his reasons for thinking Atcherley in
sane. He also told of a couple of sim
liar cases he had treated in his life,
affecting TO show that he could not
be mistaken in his diagnosis. He had
no personal desire to declare Atcher-
ley insane.
On redirect and to the court wit
ness described the effect of the drugs
Atcherlev had been taking. He CON
sidered that the act of shooting at
Wayson's house in place of at the
man himself showed an unbalanced
mind. Here the prosecution rested.
Sister Albertina was the first wit
ness called for the defense. 3 She had
known Atcheriey fifteen years and
