IHLLSBORO, April 13. (AP)
A long, series of technical questions
and answers dealing with the ef
fects of poison upon the human
system consumed the greater part
of the day, at the trial here of Mrs.
Eva N. McGee, charged with the
murder by poison of her husband,
Dr. TV. G. McGee, late Nehalem
physician.
Dr. 'R. T. Boals, physician to
McGee, was on the, stand as a
state witness throughout the af
ternoon session, and will be called

was mostly a repetition of that
given at Mrs. McGee's first trial,
at which the jury disagreed.
