The stomach, from observation, was not diseased. and the only thing that Wilson had to base his s report on was the fact that the Chinese undertaker had informed him that Tom | Quong Chong had complained of pains in his stomach. Under police directions, the stomach has been sent to the City Chemist's of- fice for analysis.
