Does that apply to traumatic as well as to idiopathic tetanus?—They are both alike, when the disease sets in, as regards the course of the symptoms.
Are the symptoms more or less severe in India than in this climate?—I do not see there is any difference; when once set up, the symptoms of tetanus are the same.
John Jackson
In all your experience, did you ever know a case in which the disease ran its course and ended in death in the space of twenty minutes or half an hour?—I have never seen it.
[The rest of this day, after Dr. Jackson’s evidence, was occupied with taking evidence that there was nothing in Palmer’s papers to show joint transactions between him and Cook; as to Pratt’s and Padwick’s accounts; as to Palmer’s pecuniary position generally; as to the forgery of his mother’s name, and the forgery of an endorsement on a cheque for £375 of Cook’s name, by which he passed into his own account that sum which was intended for Cook.]
The Court then adjourned.
