Asked by the Coroner why he did not hold a post-mortem examination and by what means he diagnosed the cause of death, the Japanese doctor said that it did not occur to him that a post-mortem examina tion was necessary. He diagnosed the cause of death by a swelling on the top of deceased's scalp and also on the information that the girl had a fall.
