SMYTH TO PROBE
DEATHJDF CHILD
Possible Prosecution of Dr. C.
H. Thacher Put Up te
City Solicitor
Further investigation Is being made
today into the case of Alexis du Pent,
twelve years" old, 1424 Spruce street,
who died of diphtheria en April '- nt
the Philadelphia Hospital for Conta
gious Diseases. The boy was first at
tended by Christian Science practition
ers and later, by Dr, O. H. Thacher,
2008 Chestnut street. The latter was
censured by the Beard et Health yes
terday for falling te report the case
promptly.
Dr. Thacher refused comment today.
"All I can say," he declared, "is
that I reported the case within twenty
four hours of the time 1 mndc a diag
nosis. I de net care te make any state
ment. In view of the nttltude of the
neard of Health I have placed every
thing In the hands of Jeliii V caver, my
attorney. It seems te me that some of
the reports of the case have been exag
gerated unduly, but I realize this Is be
cause of the prominence of the du
Pent." v
Docter Won't Be Arrested
Director Furbush explained that Dr.
Thacher would net be put under arrest
ferthally. but would be summoned, te
appear before a mnglstrfrte. "There
will be nethlns spectacular." he said.
The Director of Health explained that
the next step would be for the clerk of
the Beard of Health te send him the
certlfled recommendntien of the beard
that Dr. Thacher be prosecuted. He
then would take, the recommendation, he
laid, te City Solicitor Smyth.
"I expect te confer with Mr. Smyth
this afternoon." said Dr. FurhiMi. "I
feel great sympathy for the Du Pent
fnmllj. The boy who died hail every
thing te live for. jet he received -worse
medical tretinein than would have been
given the poorest child of the slums."
Dr. Furbush was asked if the matter
might be looked en with mere severity
because Dr. Timelier Is a homeopath.
Denies It Flatly
"By no means." said Dr. Furbush.
"There are homeopaths en the stuff of
the Hospital for Contagious EMsenses
and numbered among the cltj's mcdic.il
inspectors."
While there is possibility of the State
Beard of Health taking action In the
matter, Dr. William M. Hlllegas,
a member ,of the State body, said It
would net step into the case unless
definite uctlen Is tnken by ;hc local
beard.
"The State beard never initiates ac
tion." said Dr. Hillegas. "until after
the city has done se. Sometimes the
States beard works in conjunction with
the medical society If urged te de se.
While the responsibility nppears te de
volve upon the physician who delayed
In reporting the case, nevertheless it is
difficult nt any time te place responsi
bility in cases in which Christian
Scientists have figured."
Fer the first Unit today Mr. and
Mrs. du Pent told the story of their
son's Illness and sudden dcatn.
"There has been a let said in this
case that is net. true," Mr. du Pent
said. "Here is the true story :
"I fear very much that my boy was
bevend savins when he reached Phila
delphia. He was taken 'tck while he
was in the country, imt we did net
think it was very serious. Thursday
night, March 20, we brought hltn te
Philadelphia; he was vciy 111 then.

Mrs. du Pent acquiesced In every
thing her husband aald, emphasizing
by . repeating herself that there had
been "no Interference."
