At the trial certain witnesses testi fied that before the accident Sara's chestnut hair was just beeinnins to turn erav but that in a day or two after the accident it turned snow white No physicians were called to express an opinion as to whether the change in color of her hair was a result ol her Injury. Leoal Error Alleged The iurv decided in favor of Sara's appeal; Alvin's at torney alleged that it was legal error to permit a jury to mess or speculate, without the help of medical opinion. that the discoloration of the hair had been caused by the accidental injuries. The appellate court, affirm ing the ludzment. cited Byron's "The Prisoner of Chillon" as authority for the statement that it is common knowledge or belief that hair may grow white in a single night from sudden fears. This is such a widely ac cepted fact, said the court, that it was not necessary to amt medical testimony on the subject. As an illustration, the poiirt said that if Sara testi fied she was struck in the ve and eot a black eye, it would be unnecessary to pro duce an exnert witness to say that an "extravasion of blood resulting in ecchymosis might follow such a blow. Court Rules ' On the other hand, it was pointed out that other more remote and subtle effects, urii as cancer or tuber culosis, would call for more than a layman's knowledge oi and effect. The .court felt that medical evidence would not have added any thing to this case, so the fail ure to produce it was not error.
