DR.. B.. Clark Hyde had beer under
suspicion in connection With the mys-
ferrous illness and deaths in the SWope !
family ever since the death OF Col.
Thomas II. Swope on Oct, 8, 1899.
The death OF Col. Swope followed
soon after he had sustained a severe
CONFUSION, and the CONFUSION, it was
charged by members of the Swope
family, followed Immediately after
the administration of a capsule at the
direction of DR.. Hyde. Dr.. Hyde said
it was a digestive tablet. 1t was PROV
EN- at the trial that DR.. Hyde had pur-
chased cyanide of potassium in five
grain capsules and he was prosecuted
on the belief that he gave one of
these capsules to Col. Swope. DR..
Hyde said he bought the cyanide cap
sules to kill ~cockroaches in his office.
Two days before the death of Col.
Swope, Moss Hunton, a cousin OF the
millionaire philanthropist, died at the
Swope home following a stroke of
apopleXy. Drs. Hyde and G.. r. ivy
man of Independence treated Hunton.
The patient was bled profusely, it is
charged, at the suggestion OF Or.
Hyde. After six pints of blood was
taken from Hunton the bleeding pro-
cess was stopped, but not until DR..
Twyham had repeatedly protested
that too much blood vas being taken

Chrisman died after taking a cap
sule given at DR.. Hyde's direction and
after suffering a convulsion similar to
the one that attacked Col. Swope.
Margaret SwOpe, Chrisman's sister,
who also was treated by DR.. Hyde,
had a CONFUSION after taking a cap
sue, put she was given an emetic at
once by DR.. Twyham and she recov-
cred.
On Jan. Z, 1910, the body of Chris
man Swope was secretly exhumed, and
four days later the body of Col.
Swope was removed from it's tomb.
md the viscera Wf the bodies were
taken to Chicago for analysis.
The analysis of the liver of Col.
Swope's body showed the finding of
32-66 OF a grain of %strychnine by the
Chicago chemists.
In all DR.. Hyde was indicted on II
counts, the remaining indictments
