Testimony from George Bates and multiple medical experts details alleged tetanus symptoms and possible toxin sources in the Palmer case. Witnesses describe traumatic and idiopathic tetanus distinctions, abortions of symptoms, and several strychnia poisonings as comparison cases, with postmortem and pharmacological notes shaping the trial’s medical context.
Dr Alfred Swayne Taylor testifies as first witness for the Attorney-General. He describes experiments with strychnia, absence of detectable traces in tissues, and doses lethal to animals. He notes antimony traces in the liver kidney and spleen and discusses testing limitations and opinions on the poisoning deaths of Mr Cook and others.
