WOODS TRAGEDY SEQUEL

MURDERER OF WAITRESS

HANGED AT LEEDS

David Maskill Blake (29) was hanged at Armley Jall, Leeds, at 9 o'clock of a recent morning for the murder of Emily Yeomans, a Leeds cafe waitrean, by strangling hor with her own scarf in Middle- ton Woods, on the outskirts of Leeds, on the night of October 10.

When Blake's appeal against the death sentence was dismissed by the Court of Criminal Appeal, Lord Howart, the Lord Chief-Justice, described the murder as a cruci and treacherous one,

The trial at Leeds, before Mr. Justice Goddard, evoked extra- ordinary public interest because of the fact that the case rested so much on circumstantial evidence and highly scientific testimony relating to the nature of a strand of wool torn from Blake's clothing. Miss Yeomans, who was 23 years of age, was seen to meet a man shortly after 7.30 on the night of the murder, and to walk with him direction of the Middleton Woods, where her body was found next morning. That same day, at the register office at Leeds, Blake married a waitress at another cafe by whom he had had a child. This woman, in the witness-box, swore that a box of powder found in Blake's room and said to have be longed to Miss Yeomans, was her property, but this evidence was negatived by analytical chemlats.

DOCTOR'S ERROR

J FROM PATIENT

NOMINAL DAMAGES

'Judgmont for five guincas against a doctor was given in the King's Bench Division, London, in the action in which tho doctor was allegod, accidentally, to have left the broken needle of a hypodermic syringe in a woman's body.

Mrs.

The plaintiffs, Mr. and Aaron Gorber, of Upper Maryle- bone Street, London, brought an action for damages against Dr. Pines, of Philpot Street, London, alleging that during a hypodermic Injection on Mrs. Gerber, defendant left part of a needle in her back. Defendant denied negligence,

Mr. Norman Richards was brief- el for plaintiffs and Mr. Henry Dickena for defendant.

Mr. Justice du Parcq said that As to some of the allegations of no negligence, there was really evidence. Unfortunately there was good deal of dispute between plaintifs and the doctor as to some incidento and conversations he tween them, but much of the case was common ground and he was not confronted with any great dif- ficulty by the conflict of evidence.

Is Lordship said it was quite clear that no negligence in the performance of the operation was proved against Dr. Pines. The in- jection was administered much as the previous ones were, though there might have been some dif- ference in the posture of the patient.

It was suggested that the doctor did not use a Aultable needle. Needles were all liable to break. They might break through careless handling, but there was no evidence that there had been any careless handling in this instance.

A needle might break because of an Involuntary movement on the part of the pallent. Mrs. Gerber was a very nervous woman, and Mr. Gerber was also anxious that she should not be told she WAB seriously ill. The doctor said he thought it was not wise in the circumstances to tell the patient the needlo was in her body, but it seemed to his Lordship that as a general rule the patient in whose body a doctor finds that he has left Romo foreign substance was en- titled to be told so at once.

LAYMAN'S VIEW

Speaking as a layman, he thought there was something to be said for the auggestion that it would have been wiser to have made the in- jection in the arm, but he could not possibly hold that it negligent to make the injections in the body.
