At what stage did it come on in the Leeds case?—Very early, more than two hours before death.
How long did the paroxysms continue before death took place?—Two hours and a half.
That was in a case in which very large doses of strychnia were administered?—We supposed four or five times repeatedly.
In the case of Leeds there were four animals killed afterwards from the contents of the stomach?—There were.
You state that you have succeeded in every case where you have tried in your experiments in finding the strychnia?—Yes.
Did not Mr. Morley differ from you in two cases?—In one he did. We divided the poison which we found in the stomach into two portions, and we adopted two different processes for extracting it, and by the one process we were both rather doubtful, but by the other we produced it.
Now, you thought you found it, and he thought you did not?—Not that I recollect.
Do not you know that Mr. Morley has been rather doubtful as to the results of these experiments?—No. Mr. Morley stated differently in his own examination.
In his examination here?—Yes; if you refer to it, except in one case, and that is the explanation I give of it.
Re-examined by Mr. Serjeant Shee—The Attorney-General directed your attention to your report on one of these cases that the hands were rigid and the feet incurved. In reports of this kind do you state only extraordinary appearances, or ordinary appearances as well?—Ordinary appearances also. It is a statement of a fact without anything more.
