DOCTOR'S EVIDENCE

Dr. Yeo Kok-cheang, who had per- formed a post-mortem on deceased on September 2, said he found the cause of denth to be Internal haemorrhage from a rupture, of the spleen, which was twice normal size. The acventh, eighth and ninth ribs on the left side had been fractured, and there was a corresponding bruise on the body..

The bruise was more or less cir- cular and about 11⁄2 in. In diameter, and might have been caused by a blow from the end-of-a-blunt-stlek," a clenched fist, a kick, or by deceased being pushed against some hard ob- ject,

1 may have needed only a slight blow to rupture the spleen. but judging from the broken ribs the blow must have been quite severe. Dr. Yeo estimated that, after Chan's

spleen had been ruptured, he lived for some three to six hours. He might have been able to walks a distance of 14 to two miles, but would show

22 signs of faintness and shock, growing weaker and weaker. His face would

Laco be pale and he would be perspiring. Liu Fal, a Fire Brigade ambulance man, said that in onswer to a call. he went with an ambulance to Sham- shulpo Police Station about 8.45

P.m en August 31, and saw Chan being carried down the station steps by two polleemen. He appeared to be in a very critical condition, and was taken to the Kwong Wah Hospital, where he died at 10 a'clock that night.

A stone-cutter, Wong Lap, 40, said he had known the dead man for about 15 or 10 years. In August he was employed at a woltam ore shop, where witness gold three taels of ore to him on August 30.

Her first book, "Yang Kuei-fel, Most Famous Beauty of China," was published in 1923, and her second on Hi Shh, Beauty Beauties" in 1941. later publication was "Chao Chun, Beauty in Exile."
