Q. Not being an anatomical man it has slipped my memory, will you please to repeat it?
A. I believe I did not before mention the omentum or caul, that was suffused with blood of a brownish red, the stomach and bowels appeared in general red, which is vulgarly called an inflammation.
Q. Might not that be owing to a transfusion of the blood?
Dr. Rattray. From what cause?
Mr. Newnham. From putrefaction.
Dr. Rattray. Do you, by a transfusion of the blood, mean the passage of the blood from the arteries into the veins?
Mr. Newnham. Yes.
Dr. Rattray. I cannot think it could arise from putrefaction.
Q. That is your opinion?
A. It is.
