lack of acidity,starch or the lack of starch,maltase or the lack
of maltase. The conditions are too variable. A great many things
retard digestion, such as excitement, anger and grief. Formalde-
hyde stops all formed processes of the pancreatic juices, and
after a body was embalmed with it I would not expect to find the
pancreatic juices. It also destroys the pepsin, so that 10 days
after death in the case of a body embalmed with formaldehyde no
accurate opinion could be given as to how long the cabbage (State's
Exhibit G) had been in the stomach. Each stomach is a law unto its
self. Cooked cabbage is more difficult to digest than raw cabbage.
I recently made tests with one man and four women with normal
stomachs, giving them cabbage and wheat bread, and removing it
from the stomach a little later to determine how the contents of
the stomach looked. The first woman, age 32, (Defendant's Exhibit
88 A) ate loaf bread and cabbage, chewed it well and vomited it
60 minutes later. She ate it at 12 o'clock approximately. It took
her 9 minutes to chew it. None of them were supposed to have eaten
any thing since 6:30 o'clock that morning, but she had drunk some
chocolate milk at 9.30, and that gives this specimen the chocolate
brown color. The next one, (Defendant's Exhibit 88 B) has in it
the hot water AND THE ENTIRE VOMIT and embalming fluid added to it,
that is formaldehyde. The cabbage was not well chewed, and looks
like it did before it was eaten. She ate it 5 minutes after 12,
and it stayed in her stomach 45 minutes. The next one (Defendant's
Exhibit 88 D) was a man 25 years old. He did not chew his well.
He ate it in 5 minutes. I took it from his stomach 1 hour and 15
minutes later. It was not digested. The next one (Defendant's
Exhibit 88 C) was a woman, aged 21, she chewed it well, and held
it from 30 to 45 minutes. There seems to be something like toma-
toes in it which she ate at 6.30 that morning. This last one
(Defendant's Exhibit 88 E) was woman, aged 25. She ate cabbage
and bread. She did not chew it well, and kept it 2 hours and 38
minutes. You can see cabbage in there. No dependable opinion
