Deputy Commissioner George W. Meyer said the investigation into Lawyer Abraham Hummel's discharge from Blackwell's Island led Commissioner Coggey to ask the State Medical Board to transfer Dr. Philip B. Matz to another institution. Meyer questioned the doctor’s claim about entering Hummel’s taxi after leaving the island ferry while pursuing medicine for a very ill patient. Head Keeper Murtha denied accompanying Hummel on the ferry, a point Meyer found satisfactory as he concluded the inquiry.
