SEVERE CENSURE

j BY THE CORONER O’er Press Association—Copyright). AUCKLAND, July 7. After hearing the evidence I consider that the mother of the deceased deserves the severest censure for not obtaining medical aid for the unfortunate girl, who lay practical!) rotting away for three months, without any proper attention. This is tin. most distressing case I have ever heard of,” said the Coroner, Mr K. Hunt, speaking at an inquest this morning. That Anita Kate Walker, aged 32, had died at her home at Epsom of sarcooa, u malignant growth, on her leg, for which she had objected to submit to amputation last -September, stating that sin would rather die than give up dancing. As doctors could do nothing for her she thought that faith healing might. The evidence showed that the advanced growth had become a wound in a gangrenous state. The Coroner commented on the fact that the girl had received no medical attention in the eight months, prior to her death. SCIENCE VERSUS COLDS. Science has conquered the common cold.
