The suggestion that medical men should make accurate notes when examining men charged with intoxication was made by Mr. Wyvern Wilson, S.M., in the Auckland Magistrate’s Court. When counsel was asking a doctor what he said when examining a man, the witness could not remember. The magistrate said the bench was entitled to know the foundation of a doctor’s opinion, but as a doctor could not be expected to remember over a long period, notes should be made.
