" .Only three witnesses were examin- `ed on Friday at the continuation in `Toronto of the `enquiry. intothe san- 'ity of Michael Fraser, being con- ducted before Mr. Justice Britton. It will be recalled that the case was, adjourned to Toronto from the Barrie Assizes. ' . I i '_ _The witnesses were Dr. A. I. John- `EC1a,rle DE J. M. `gotten and D..| _ _ s . Clark, ..,>upermtendent of- the Toronto Asylum: for thelnsane. Thecross-examination of Dr. Clark was not concluded on Friday by Mr. A. _McLean Macdonell, K.C., who 15 acting for Miss .- C. .McCorrnick_. a Inember .of_'Fraser s family., in_ the` action to have his marriage to a daughter. of Rev. W. Robertson, of Dundas, set aside. Mr. Fraser is alleged to be a victim of senile ` de- mentia. . sult of the examination, to which he and Dr. Ryan` had subjected Mr.l Fraser, he had come to the conclu- sion that `Fraser was in a condition_ of" senile demen_tia. , .H`e described the symptoms of this disease and stated that Fraser showed them 2111.`: He had found that the old gentle- man had suffered and attackof cere- bral hemorrhage a short time pre- viously\~.and this might have confus- ed him temporarily and have account- ed.for several mistakes which. Fraser made .in answering questions. 1 . Showed Improvement. I - John King, K._C., for the defend- ants, secured from... the witness" a statement that at the second examin- ation which :he made Michael Fra-l ser"s condition showed improvement over the first time, although he 'a'`irmed that the disease was one Dr. Johnson stated that as a_ re-` I which showed consistent develop- *n`1ent. Dr. Johnson explained that- the few months which elapsed be-l tween the two examinations-was not suicient for the disease `to .make much-. progress. ' -Mr. King brought `out a paper on which was typewr`t- ten a full report of the conversation between Dr. Johnson and Mr. Fraser. Upon being questioned by Mr. Mac- donell,he stated that Rev. Mr. R0`:-l ertson had made the report, but de- clined to give any information as to how itwas made. Mr.- Macdonell was_ inclined to the opinion that it was not a very accurate report and Dr. Johnson also found fault with it. Mr. Kin used it to ask ~ques-I tions as to t e ability. of Mr. Fraser to answer sensibly 'Dr.- Johnston s| questions, A ` II II ! c -r c `o .u o. l Mr. King, before releasing the wit- ness, examined him as to the vario.1s symptoms shown by Mr. Fraser and pointed out`that they were mere in-. dications of senile dementia, 'which is a form of insanity. Found Senile Dementia. l Dr. Cotton stated that, from the one examination of "two -hours and a half duration that he had made. he had found the patient in a condition o_f.senile dementia. He was not cap- able of managing his affairs nor of looking after himself. . He was of unsound mind. When cross-examine ed`by Mr. King,`D.r. Cotton was_f're- ,quent.1y corrected in his statements by the memoranda held by the coun{ sel. One of the questions which Dr. Cotton had put to test his astuteness and judgment was as to these new- fangled aii-ships. Mr. "Fraser said they were allhumbug. Mr. King said he thought Mr. Fraser s an swer. s to some of Dr. _Cotton's ques-i ltions showed a keen wit. ` g - ` _ Dr. Cotton tried to explain that `the. defendant was subject to.tempo- Erary ratioinal spells. He then admit- ted that the disease admitted `of no such spells, that the condition of se- ;ni1e dementia was progressive and; lhad no lapses. The patient `had no` erty in A Brilliant Favorite NIORATI-I%E*RN ADVANCE delusions, h`alh1cinations' _or. illusions -and had a` good memory for events of sometime previous. His memory of recent events was only -fair.` He had no morbid restlessness and spoke fairly well for a man` of his years. Dr. Cotton persisted in his statement. that` Mr. Fraser had senile demen- tia. ' r 3 I , no ' Q` g -_ Dr. Clark examined the patient for an hour in April and found him of sound mind. He was bright and able to a_nswer questions, although he was normally senile. He had not senile dementia. The only mistake he made was as to. the date of his` marriage; and he afterwards corrected that of hisown] accord. He `had shown li - _tle' initiative in conversation. ,/ Dr. Clark declined to arrive at any con- clusion, by comparing Fraser ` with an average normal old man. That was not the way to arrive at a con- clusion, he stated. One must con- sider the man s own normal con- dition. .He' found Fraser sagacious, prudent, circumspect, 'sober in con- jecture and ripe in judgment and cit- ed instances to support each state-' `merit. 9 i I I I hearing of the case _was T ad-N iourned to Saturdaiy `morning. At the conclusion. oi the hearing `of ,evidence _in the lawsuit concern; [ing the sanity of Michael Fraser `on Saturday morning, Mr. Justice .Britton announced his intention: of `going ,to see` Fraser himself, proba- l bly Thursday. .I q as In ` Dr. Clarke continued _ his evidence ;under the cross-examination of` Mr- lMacdon_ell, and stated that, even if `other doctors were of the opinion ~that the old man had senile demen- tia, he would not alter his statemenit lthat he was merely normally senile. When Mr. Macdonell put the hy- pothetical question Dr. Clarke stat- ed that such a. man. would have se-V nile dementia, but added that the .symptoms enumerated by the law- |'yer were not his diagnosis. Dr. Beemer, of the Mirnico Asy- lum, ` and formerly of the London Asylum, wa.s then called to the stand. \He had visited Mr. Fraser "on June )2oth, accompanied by Dr. Raikes. |Dr. Beemer found no evidence of se- nile dementia, on the contrary he found him of normal perception with no perversion of his senses of Ivision, hearing, smell and touch, and |h_is reasoning faculties and judgment ;were good for an old man. *lIr'.I 5...... --- --- nu ------- i With regard to the examination wof his mental condition he had pro- -ceeded along the lines of what was usual in a normal old man. He had ifound nothing unusually `wrong. On his `second visit some time later he found Fraser physically stronger and mentally brighter. `II `I , I I unvu..- , having he shall 3 Mr. Macdonel asked the witness if 1 he had known of the cerebral hem- orrhage and received a. negative an- swer. Dr. Beemer stated that such an event would be an indication of lbrain diseaseandv the difference be- tween normal senility and senile de- mentia was the brain trouble. In spite of it, however , Dr. Beemer maintained that Fraser was a normal old man. When Mr. Macdonell asked a hypothetical- question as to la man having a long list of symp- toms which he enumerated as those given by previous witnesses, Dr. Beemer stated that the inference would be that the man showing them was diseased. 1 | Mr. Irving H. Cameron found Mr. Fraser not only normal, but decided- Iywitty. He decidedly got the best of Mr. Cameron and his companions, His memory as torecent events was as good as It was of long past events. He knew all about the present law- suit and;. said that Miss McCor- mick s action was a piece of .``dam- to talk quite intelligently of the her- aldry of his family, the Frasers, and translated the French and Latin in- scriptions of his coat-of-arms. .He saidathat he thought Laurier was very politic in preaching protection in the Middle West and free tradein the West. He voiced witty and sen- sible opinions on other modern poli- tical questions. Summing up. `he found him sane, with. judgment, memory and faculties generally `ex- cellent. ` `med impertinence. -He was able l At the conclusion of Mr. Cameron s evidence, Judge Britton announced his intention of going to Midland to see the man about whose sanity so much has been said pro and con. He will be accompanied by the two law- i yers. After the visit a datewill be I | set for the hearing of argument. A Mdnium-Priced Double I-{e_atez;, with and without `oven.
