He might agree to regulators Used when needed judgment but he (Mr. Leoak) could not say:
He argued that they shouldr. Leask said he was unable to have been preserved as a matter of principle so as the defonce could examine them and form their own opinion.
Without the bodies there could be no charge of murder, contended Mr. Loseby. There was no av dence without the corpse. He could not say, not having heard the whole of his friend's case, of what importance the two dead bodies would be to him, but it was absolutely vital for the de- fence that the bodies should be In a properly preserved condition. That was a matter of principle and was always done at Home.
His Worship asked Mr. Loseby If he could quote any authorities on the point.
Mr. Loseby: I have not had a wide experience, but there was one big case in which I was in- volved I was for the defence where the body was not hurled until I gave my consent
His Worship pointed out that the doctor had said that the day- gar produced in court fitted in only one of the wounds. With regard to the others he had said that they could have been made with the weapon produced.-
Mr. Hazlerigg: We can dig up the, body and make an, exhibit of the shoulder bone. We can do it, Lut it is very unusual.

Mr. Loseby: The Court always niores for inspection.
His Worship: I will note your objection.
The point was left at that and the case, after further evidence, was adjourned.
