IS CLEARED
IN DEATH OF GIRL
Coroner's Jury Finds No Neg.
ligence in Preparation for
TonsiI Operation.
BY GEORGE PORTER,

UPPER MARLBORO, Md, August z.
Less than five minutes elaboration
was last night required by q coroner's
jury to decide that there was no neg
ligence on the part of DR.. Bryan p.
Warren Of Laurel in connection with
the death, July 27, Of Miss Myra Nor
ton. 10, Of Falkland, Md, who sue
cumbed following the administration OF
a hypodermic preparatory to tonsil
operation.
In a verdict. which completely ex-
onerated the doctor Of all blame, the
Jury found that death was caused by
the fact that she had an enlarged
thymus gland, which was only discov-
cred by an autopsy, and not from the
effects Of any drug administered by
DR.. Warren"
Regarded Unusual.
DR.. James I. Boyd of Forestyille, Md,
who performed the autopsy, told Of the
enlarged thymus gland, which, he said.
was a very unusual phenomena in
girl of her age, the thymus normally
disappearing after childhood.
DR.. William Alien Griffith Of Berwyn,
after hearing the result Of the autopsy,
testified that IN his opinion it was
merely coincidence that the girl died
during the preparations for the opera
ton, as her physical makeup was such
she was likely to die following any ex-
element, such as seeing a runaway
horse or being in an automobile acct
dent.
DR.. Warren told OF administering the
hypodermic, which contained less
than the usual" quantity Of hydro
bromide hyosine, and OF Miss Norton's
collapse shortly afterward. Chief H.
L. Leonard Of the Prince Georges
County rescue squad described the
seven-hour fight Of the squad to save
the girl.
Parents Ordered Investigation.
The autopsy and inquest was ordered
by States Attorney J. Frank Parran
at the request of the girls parents. who
were not satisfied with an investigation
made by the Prince Georges County
authorities, which had convinced the
police that the girl had peculiarly"
for hyosine, as some do for quininc,
and that her death was unavoidable.
Justice OF Peace H. w. Gore presided
at the inquest.
