Few of his patients paid him in full and-he wrote "on account" without thinking. The $35 he said covered his trip to Toronto. When he received the call -he did not suggest `a local doctor be- cause he`had other business in the city anyway.

Death was due to peritonitis and he considered her dying for two hours before the op- eration, which was performed against his_ advice and that of Dr. Scott, the .opera.ting surgeon. but the coroner wanted her to have every chance.

He first met the girl, he declared, on the afternoon of Sept. 16 when she called at his office and lasked for an examination. He told her to call again in the evening when he examined her thoroughly in the presence of his wife. In explanation he stated that he did not employ .a nurse and Mrs. Oaks frequently as- sisted him in such cases. Finding some of her organs not functioning properly, ihe questioned the girl closely as to I her condition but.she denied that there . was anything wrongwith her.
