DOCTOR SAYSGIRL WAS NOT DROWNED Direct Evidence of Death Given at Herkimer Trial When Physician Whe Performed the Autop- sy Testified. HERKIMER, N. Y, Nov. 27-Dr. Douglas of Little Falls. one of the phy- siclans who belped to perform the au topsy on Grace Brown's body, testified At the trial of Chester Gillette that the injuries found on the budy were in Ricted before death. He testified that the teuuls ricket that Gillette biiried and which the sherl® found was cn- pable of producing the abrasions and other injuries found oi) the body. “The condition of the girl's lungs did pot in- dicate drowning,” sald Dr. Douglas This wax stricken out. “The lips were swollen. and the tip of the nose was cularged and discolored. The left center upper tooth was over lapping the right center upper tooth. The left cheek bone was swollen. There were abrasions and membrane at the lips. These Injuries were in- flicted before death.” he sald “The blood vessels of the head bad been sepamted asf by blows." The word “blows” was objected to, aud the objection was sustained A dramatic moment ensued as Dis- trict Attorney Ward swung the tennis racquet which was found near Big Moose lake in the air experimentally “The Mjuries could have been pro- duced by this weapon, using either end” the doctor sald Dr. Douglas stated that the blood clot on the brain was as large as a ten cent piece and again said that jit was causal by external violence before death. Dr. Douglas further sald that In his opinion such n blood clot would cause death, nithough there were cases where persons recovered from severe cantusions. Dr. Douglas then described the head as he found it. There was a blood clot on the Lrulu, Lut no fracture of the skull “In your opinion, what was the cause of death?” “I should say that death resnited from shock or concussions resulting from blows or Injuries to the head be fore Immersion, or If Immersion did occur while there was still life the chances of restoration were so few that immersion was unnecessary to produce death” In bis cross examination of Dr Douglas, Mr. Mills, senior counsel of Gillette, quizzed the witness about any indications the Lody of Grace Brown might have shown took up the subject of the girl's eyes in them?" asked Mr, Mills “Yes.” “Isn't that an indication of drown ing usually ¥* “It 1s” The witness also testified that the swelling of the lips, the enlargement of the tip of the nose and the light red coloring of the lungs were symp- toms of drowning. Former Senator Mis. Gillette's senior counsel, conducted the cross examination. He spent several hours in an effort to shake the testimony of these witnesses, and while be suc cred- ed In confusing Dr. A O Douglas somewhat, neither of them went back of thelr opinion that Grace Brown was slain before she was Immersed In the waters of Big Moose lake. The theory advanced by the defense wis that the blows could Lave been administered after death, aud their line of questioning indicated a conten tion that the girl In drowning rose to the sarface of the water three times and each time struck the overturned skiff and received the injuries alleged by the witnesses and the state to have bevn fnflicted Before she was deposited in the lake, This hearing was the first in which the district attorney had made ag at femipt to prove directly that Grace Brown was actually murdered. He had spent a week in showing a possible uiotive and so connecting Gillette with the case that the jury would look to him as the guilty persen should mur der be proved at the close of the state's cnse, —————————————————— Sudden Emotion Caused Death.
