DIES OF SHOCK
JURY FINDS

DR.. B. w. Shaw and DR.. G. H. Shat.
tuck of Waunakee were eXonerated
from all blame in connection with the
death of Mrs. Nicholas Hauser, town
of Vienna, by coroner's jury at
Waunakee Monday afternoon. Mrs.
Hauser died in the office of DR.. Shat
tuck, dentist, June ID, following the
extraction of six teeth and two
roots while under chloroform.
The jury found that Mrs. Hauser
came to her death from shock fol-
lowing the extraction of teeth and
that Drs. Shaw and Shattuck were
entirely blameless.
Dr. Shaw testified that when he at
tended Mrs. Hauser some eight months
ago he examined her heart and found
it in good condition. He admitted he
did not examine the heart prior to the
administration of chloroform, but de-
clared he was satisfied from the pre-
vious examination that the organ was
in perfect condition. He also stated
that in his opinion chloroform did not
affect her heart, but that death was
caused by shock following the eXtrac-
ton of the teeth.
