No decision was made on jury returned to-night at the inquest into the death of the twelve-year-old Dummer lad whose father comes up tomorrow for preliminary hearing on a charge of murder, and whose step- mother is charged with manslaughter. No mention is made of the under- nourishment, hard work, exposure and cruel treatment which were descril by various witnesses who testified at the inquest. The jury deliberated for an hour. Coroner Dr. T. W. H. Young presided and Crown Attorney G. W. Hatton, K.C., appeared for the Crown. F. D. Kerr, KC, was on hand in the interest of Mrs. Dwyer, and J. F. Strickland and B. E. Park for George Dwyer. The most important testimony was that of Dr. I. H. Erb, pathologist, who conducted the post-mortem examina- tion on the body. In summing up his findings for the jury he made seven points, of which the seventh was a final summary, reading as follows: "The extent, if any, to which the un- dernourishment and exposure may have contributed to the development of the middie ear discharge and the sub- sequent meningitis, and death cannot be determined from the post-mortem findings." Doctor's Testimony Dr. Erb said that the body had been that of a fairly well-developed boy of about 12 years. It was very emac- tated. The eves were sunken in the the head were a number of sores filled with matter. The body was four feet three inches tall and weighed about 30 pounds. There were frost bites partly healed on hands and feet. His findings were: (1) The im- mediate cause of death was strepti- coccus meningitis; (2) The meningitis was associated with and apparently de- veloped subsequent to and as a result of an acute inflammation of the right middle ear; (3) Inasmuch as strepti- coccus meningitis is an acute disease of comparatively short duration, the extensive degree of wasting cannot be attributed to the meningitis ; (4) Neith- er can the wasting be attributed to any other disease, since the remaining organs of the body were in healthy condition ;" (5) This leads to the con- clusion that the wasting was the result of under nourishment; (6) The frost bitten hands and feet were indications that the child suffered from undue ex- posure to cold and frost. Other doctors were heard who cor- roborated Dr. Erb's testimony. Dr. Holdcroft said that he had been called on February 17. The boy looked | as if he had been slowly starved for a long time. Mr. Little had told him that the children were starved and that they had been in the habit of coming to his house for food until stopped by their father. Each would eat hali a loaf of bread, they were so hungry had given the boy's father some med- icine for an aching ear and that two or three days later Dwyer had told him that the boy was better. Starved, Frozen and Beaten Matthew Little, father of Mrs. Dwy- er, the boys' stepmother, said that Dwyer and the boys passed his house every morning on the way to cut wood. In the afternoon Mrs. Dwyer would go out, leaving the younger children with him. They cut pine into four foot lengths, which Dwyer drew to Norwood. The children wore men's boots and several pairs of socks which were full of holes. Their clothes were patched. When he found that John was sick, he suggested that a doctor be called, but Dwyer demurred saying that he already owed him $25. Little called the doctor and Dwyer said that he would not pay for the trip. "George Dwyer was a very cruel with his family and with his ses," said Little. "I saw him kick the boys when they didn't do what he told them, and he used a blacksnake whip on them." Mr. Hatton: "Didn't he' use the whip on his wife, too?" Witness: "Oh, I think he used his feet on her." John Edgar, acting for the Children's Aid Society, told of the poor condi- tions in which he found the Dwyers. The boy was lying on a cot near the Three of the children were apparently ill-cared for, while three looked better. George, the boy now in hospital, had a rag tied around the stump of his toe, which had been frozen off. Wit- ness said that he believed that the boys were frozen and starved. The dinner which was on the table con- sisted of some crusts of bread, some wizened-up apples and something that looked like stew of vegetables, without any meat. Constable Maker, who went with Mr. Edgar and later arrested Mr. and Mrs. Dwyer, corroborated the evi- dence. He said that all the family, six children and the parents, slept in one room and that there were only two beds. All the food in the house coun- sisted of some corn and oatmeal, a few apples and some crusts of bread. The boys took dry bread to the woods for dinner, and it often became un- catable through freezing, Mrs. Dwyer told him. Only once in two months was there meat in the house, she had said, and that was when Dwyer's old- est daughter visited them. : Two of the children of Dwyer, of Drummer, can be in 2 home in Lindsay if they are Protestants, an offer to adopt them having been received by the Children's Aid Society. A court of inguiry un- der the Children's Protection Act was held this afternoon before Justices of (the Peace Harry Rush and Vincent the application of the society. A case of a woman in Otonabee Township was brought up before the society at its meeting. This woman is said to be in the habit of going out in the afternoons and leaving her children, aged two and four years, without any fire in the house to warm them.
