restigation of the shooting yesterday
of DR.. Wilfred E. Harris. president OF
the Massachusetts College Of Osteo-
pathy, by DR.. Eldridge d. Atwood, one
of his former students. developed to-
night as a result of the autopsy on
the body of DIR. Atwood's fiancee,. Dr.
Celia Paine Adams, who died of poison
ing short time before the attack on
Or. Harris.
Atwood declared he shot DR.. Harris
because Miss Adams had told him DR..
Harris had wronged her. In an in.
formal statement tonight the medical
examiner, DR.. George B. Magrath, who
examined the body today. announced
merely that Miss Adams came to her
death from the effects of a poison,
received by mouth, the nature of
which is at present undetermined.
The police bulletin issued last night
declared the young woman died from
a narcotic poison self administered d,
and it was believed she had ended
her life in fit of despondency after
the supposed interview with Or. Al
wood in which the latter. according to

Both DR.. Harris and Francis P.
Adams, father of DR.. Adams. have
denied the charge of Dr.. Atwood re-
garding the motive for the shooting.
The relations between my daugh-
ter and Dr. Harris were proper in
every way" said Mr.. Adams tonight.
She came in contact with DR.. Harris
frequently at the college. She knew
he was a married man and a respect
able and honorable man. believe
the real reason for the shooting was
that Dr.. Atwood thought DR., Harris
was interfering with his plans for
marrying my daughter"
DR.. Adams added that last week
Dr.. Harris called DR.. Adams and Dr
Atwood 10 conference and at that
time told Dr.. Atwood For the. good
of the profession not TO show so much
attention to the young woman. Inc
condition of DR.. Harris was reported
as extremely critical at the hospital
