DON’T FUSS, PLEASE
WOMAN AT MURDERS LONDON, July 16. An attractive girl of 27, in a smart green suit, stands beside the mutilated body of a woman and takes shorthand notes. . As Home Office pathologist, Dr. Keith Simpson examines the axe wounds which caused the woman’s death, the pencil of the girl in green moves quickly over her notebook, jotting down his comments. . Whenever Dr. Simpson is called m by the police, to make on-the-spot inquiries at the suspected murder or suicide, the girl—his secretary, Miss Jean Dunn—goes with him. Her coolness has surprised hardened detectives. Often she has to be present after gruesome killings. She saw the body of John Mudie, the barman victim of the Chalk Pit murder, who was bound and hooded in the basement of a Kensignton house. "Please don't make a fuss about me.” she says. “It is nothing at all, really.”
