D. M. Erwin. This report was USED
at the first trial of Arbuckle, which
resulted in jury disagreement. The
doctors, named by Judge Harold

examined organs of Miss Rappe &,
determine if there was any evidence
of weakness in them. The report
said there was none and following its
reading to the new jury the doctors
substantiated it with verbal testi-
nnony.

inflammations in one Of the organs
but asserted they were common
among women.
