Q. That extended lengthwise on the tongue, did it ? A This way (indicating}, Q . Upper or lower portion ? A. From the tip towards the bottom of the tongue. Q On the side ? .A Well, yes. Q. As though it had been cut that way ? A. It looked that way, I don't say such is the case. Q. It looked more like dental contusion than anything else ? A. Yes; that's the idea; it looked that way. Q What shape were those marks or contusions ? A.Which ones, now, Mr Gillan ? Q You speak of the contusions; you have already described the scars. A You mean the condition of the tongue, or on the neck around the thyroid, do you mean. Q Yes. A. Well, it was most marked on the left side, behind the left horn of the thyroid. Q. Most marked behind on the left side? A. Yes; and it covered quite an area, perhaps about an inch and a quarter or an inch and a half in diameter. Put it an inch and a quarter on the left side. On the right side it was not so marked. Q There was not so much on the right as it was on the left ? A No. Q You've seen convulsions, have you ? A.Yes. Q. This man could'nt have died of convulsion ? A. You could hardly expect thyroid convulsion. Q You think it would'nt have been done in any way by convulsion? A. No. Q. His marks on the tongue speak more strongly upon that, does it not ?
