Temper: Boil As Trial Of Dr. Adams Ends 12th Day by wnrsfm suits i,tiM)()N (AP!-Ternpers hoiledl It the Dr. John Bodkin Adama nmttlcr trial Tuesday as lawyers! ctu.-lied over a Crown witoeaa: slaicmcilt that the old woman ha; 1. accused of drugging to death could have died of natural causes. The l2th day of the trial of the int .year-old doctor ended on anoet .-.r polite anger. with the attorney- general and the chief de'ence law- yer glaring at each other. The point at issue was what r.-mm w i t n'es I Dr. Michael licorge Ashby meant when he said natural death "can't be ruled out" In the case of Mrs. Edith Morrell. ucaithy Biyear-nld widow who died six years ago while a patient of Adams. The statement was made at the end of painstaking cross-examlna- mm by defence counsel Geoffrey Lawrence. who submitted that throughout a protracted treatment involving heavy doses of heroin and morphine Adams might have been doing what he considered best for his patient. ' V "isn't all this a possible view of the evidence in the case? ' he de- 'lI.'lIlflE't'l. i "Yes, I think it is.” Ashby re- lied. NATIJIAI. DIATII QUERY Then. ntotiog that Mrs. Morrell "passed away quietly" on the night of Nov. I2. iaso. Lawrence asked: "On the face of that record. it is not possible. is it. to rule out the hypothesis that when the and came in that way it was the re- sult of natural causes?" "That can't be ruled out." Ashby answered. Attorney-General Sir Reginald Manningham-Buller took up redi- rect examination as Lawrence sat down. Three times as the attorney-gem eral went back over the circum- stances surrounding the widow's death Lawrence rose to oblect that the redirect examination was being conducted improperlys Justice Sir Patrick Arthur Dev- lin upheld the attorney-general on each occasion. But when Manning- hamBuller had finished. the judge also sought to clarify Ashbyla meaning. Ashby, a noted neurologist. tea- tified that the sy displayed by Mrs. Mon-ell at the time of her 'death could have resulted either from heacy drug injections or from "some catastrophic NUS 0. SYMPTOM Till IAMI The symptoms involved. he said. could have been "exactly ll! same" and in fact the drill ll- Jections could help'to brill & such an apparent Illlllrll CIIIR. Mannlngham-Buller p r e a I e I Ashby to say whether he now he- lives death was due to natural causes or. as the crown IIIOIGI. to massive injections of drugs pre- scribed by Adams. ''I do not think she could have survived that dosatle." he 1' Jied. "but that dosage might well hive killed her by an apparent natural cause such as uh: S l or'term- inal pneumonia." Under further questioning by the judge. Ashby stuck to his ltltO- ment that while the drug injec- tions would have killed Mrl. Mor- rell. another cause could have been involved. The crown, which charges that Adams killed Mrs. Morrell in or- der to benefit from her will. com- pleted its case with Ashby”: testi- mony. The defence has prepared numerous witnesses to testify for the mo-pound doctor if its move for dismissal is not granted. Tan Ioys loin Scouts At Souris At an taieatiturn ceremony in a hall.
