belonging to St. Bartholomew's Hospital
maketh Oath & saith that having opened and
carefully examined the Body of a new born Male Infant
supposed to have been suffocated & thrown down
the Necessary belonging to Dyetts Ward in the said
Hospital, he found the sd. Child to be perfect & full
grown, that there was no actual Appearance
of any Injury done to the Child, that he opened the

did swin notwithstanding wch Dept. is far from

Child having laid three days in the Boy House by

been produced as to have occasioned Air to have
insinated it self into the Lungs.
