Pathologist Gives Luriri Testimony

(By Alan Randal, Canadian Press Staff Writcr)

Oct. 8- (CPJ—Dt‘. W. J. Deadmun, Hamilton atholo- gist. took the witness stan at- the "torso" murder trial of Mrs. Evelyn MacLean Dick, late today and in a lurid hour of testimony told the full, gory story of the condition of the torso of the slain John Dick, revealing the fact Dick had been drinking and probably was drunk before he died.

Dr. Desdman auld the man ap- parently had been killed before his body was dismembered and dumped on the brow of l-Lsmilton Mountain where it was found last March 16.

He had died from l0 to 14 days prior to post-mortem examination of the headless, limblesu torro on March 18-42 days after Dick. husband of the prvtty young widow was last seen alive.

The athologist. a lean, graying man w o seemed to enjoy telling his story, sold the torso had been identified in his presence by John Wail, bro-ther-in-law of deceased. He spoke of identifying marks, in- cluding a cyst.

He said bullet wounds in the chest could not have caused death and. under examination by special crown prosecutor J. T. Rlgney K. 0.. agreed that lack of blood in the torso would be a condition re- sulting from death by such a thin as a gun shot wound in the missing head.
