A young woman socially prominent

She was one of large party recently

Of mosquitoes, and it was noticed that

coroner of Philadelphia refused the
request OF boarding house mistress
that she be given the freak body Of
her former boarder SO that she could
sell it to the highest bidder and thus
get back money she had advanced
the man.
The body was that of William Gut

side and other organs were not in
their natural position. Physicians
had discovered his strange physical
makeup and worry over his peculiar
construction. 1t is believed, caused
him to end his life. Gutenmiller
owed the woman board bill and
had borrowed small sums from her
from time to time. telling her that
when he died she could get money
from his body from medical coli
lege.
under the law he could not give her
the body. It is probable that It VIII
