May EXEHUMI|IE
BODY End time
Examination Of Esopha-
gus Of Shepard Is
Called For

ATLANTA. Nov. 1.-THE second
exhumation of the body of Fred D.
Shepard, exhumed for the first time
on November 6, is confidently ex-
pected as the next step in the dra-
matte investigation of the alleged
poisoning of the millionaire fruit
grower of Fort Valley, preparatory
to an analysis by an expert patholo-
gist, who will determine from the vi
tai organs whether or not their condi-
ton is the result of poison originating
from an external or internal source.
From unofficial hints given out in
Atlanta, the second elimination is ex-
pected within the week. The fact
that Psychologists require the entire
viscera for their tests and the know
ledge that only portion of Shepard's
viscera was removed on November 6
clearly indicates that the body must
be removed once again before scien-
tific reports can be completed.
The first formal statement relative
to the findings of DR.. Edgar Ever
hart. who conducted the chemical
analysis, came in a statement of Sol
icitor General Charles H. Garrett at
Macon. Solicitor Garrett said in SUBJ
stance that DR.. John Funke, Atlanta
pathologist, diagnostician and ply
sioiogist, would examine the viscera
Of Shepard to determine how poison
might have been taken into the body.
1T is DR.. Funke's work to determine
how poison might have been, taken.
he will examine the esophagus and
tell whether the effects of the poison
are shown there"
Throughout the Investigation of
the case it has been well understood
that the esophagus of Sheprad's body
had not been brought to Atlanta. IF
the examination mentioned bv Solicit
tor Jarrett is to be made a second
examination must take place.
1t has been predicted that full
reports from DR. Everhart and DIR.
Funke, should the latter act in the
case, would be rendered the coron-
er's jury order to convene in Fort
Valley on Friday, at which time Mrs.
F. Eugene Elmer, former wife of
Shepard, would also be present as
witness. To those familiar with the
case this plan of procedure appeared
impossible in view of the fact that
the pathologist could not complete his
Investigations within so short a pc
riod. Consequently, the possibility
of the postponement of the meeting
of the Jury was suggested.
Solicitor Garrett is quoted as hav-
ing said while in Atlanta on Monday
that the psychological time for the
making of arrests has not yet arriv-
ed, but that he expects to make sew
eral arrests and that there will be
great weeping and wailing and
crashing of teeth" before the inves
tigation is over.
After returning to Macon the SOL
icitor is again quoted as having said:
"Dr. Funke will express his opin-
ion from the physiological aspect of
the organs. He will tell whether the
poison passed through the organs be-
tween the mouth and the stomach
and the intestines. and whether the
poison was taken through the mouth
into the stomach, or whether it de-
voleped in tie intestines."

Dawson Missionary
Returning From Korea

DAWSON, Nov. II. Mr.. and
Mrs. Edwin Kagin have sailed from
Korea for America, but owing to
conditions in the Orient nothing
definite can be given as to the time
of their arrival in the homeland.
As Mary sJohnstone, the young
daughter of Rev. and Mrs. J. B.
tombstone, Mrs. Kagin volunteered
for service in the foreign field, while
her father, as presiding elder of the
Americas district occupied the dis
trict parsonage in Dawson. The high
" accomplished and beloved young
woman went out as a representative
of the Dawson Methodist church six
years ago. What her consecrated
and beautiful life Of service has
meant in the schools Of Korea can

not be estimated. 1t was in the mis-
sion field that she met Rev. Edwin
kagin representative of the Pres
byterian church. Miss tombstone re-
turned to Georgia to be married at
the home of her parents, and her
friends for few months enjoyed the
acquaintance of her husband, whom
they learned to esteem very highly.
Mr.. and Mrs. Kagin with their
young daughter, Julia Elizabeth, will
be warmly welcomed back home by
many friends.

BaHled Doctors Find
Cause Of Child's Death

VALDOSTA, Nov. II. - In the
interest of medical science and for
whatever benefit it might be for fu-
ture sufferers, Mr.. and Mrs. G. d.
Lane this week consented that an
autopsy be held on their young
daughter, Miss Estelle, whose death
occurred Monday.
The autopsy was made by DR..
Frank Bird, and it was shown that
death had been caused from a large
abscess on the brain, just above the
right temple. During the child's i'll
ness practically every physician in

the city was called in consultation.
The case showed so many conflict
ing leads, and every test made fail
ed to bring satisfactory solution
to the problem. For more than for
ty-eight hours prior to death the
child slept and all efforts to arouse
her were without satisfactory results.
Every phase of the illness was a
puzzle to the various physicians. For
some time prior to her serious i'll
ness the child complained of being
unwell. Prior to this in her school
work she was regarded as unusual
ly bright, making her grades easily.
However. the slowly forming abscess
began to tell on her weeks before
serious illness, but her condition
could not be diagnosed.
