Doctor's Evidence.

Dr. D. J. Valentine, who was in charge of the Government Civil Hospital at the time, testified, while referring to Hospital records, that on the date in question, there was admitted into the institution a man

of the name given, suffering from stab wounds. He had a wound an inch-and-a-half in length which penetrated the left chest, and an other measuring half-an-inch in the lower left side of the chest. There

was also a wound in the left arm.

The two wounds in the chest were serious in that, they penetrat ed the chest into the lung, one nar- rowly missing the heart, and were caused by a sharp pointed instru: ment. The patient made a good

recovery.

Mr. Rendall (cross-examining for the defence): Is there any- thing in the nature of the wound to indicate the relative position of this man and the man who struck

him?

Witness replied that the direc- tion of the wounds showed that one was caused by a downward thrust and the other by a slightly upward thrust with the weapon.
