Upon examination. It -was found
that Brumfleld was still alive al
though in a stupor from the great
loss of blood. The bleeding had
stopped, when the physicians arriv

suffering greatly from the shock. He
was in a delerlous state, and was
very weak.

up the wounds, the officers made a

however, and the authorities were
completely baffled.

In the meantime the physicians
were working over the dentist In an
effort to save his life. Ho was mur
muring weakly and Inchoherently
and was moving slightly.
My tooth It aches. It hurts

doctors worked over him, then with

It was feared at first that the

physicians drugged the patient heav-j

and causing further hemorrhsgea
and then decided to return at about
midnight. At that hour, however. It
was found that he had survived the
first shock and was resting more
easily. He was put onder an opiate
and Deputy Sheriff Kepper placed on
guard, being given strict orders to
allow no one In the Jail until morn

prescribed.

The wound on the right s de of the
neck is about two Inches In length
and about a half Inch ln depth. It Is
paralleled by a light surface cut
which barely scratches the skin. The
cut on the left side Is about three
Inches long and a little deeper than
the other and Is the most dangerous
of the two.
The sharp jagged edge of the im
plement used was not deeo enough to
reach through to the Carotid artery
which it Is quite evident the dentist
was trying to reach. The thick,
tough walls of this blood vessel were
exposed and scratched, but apparent
ly the instrument was not sharp
enough or long enough to cut through
as would have been the case had a
knife or razor blade been used, the
officers say.
The cut grazed, but did not reach
the doep structures of the neck, and
consequently, although there was a
great loss of blood, the cuts in them
selves will not necessarily prove fa
