Jlerk of Court, Williamsburg county,
Kingstree, S. C.
)ear Sir:
In accordance with the Code of laws
if South Carolina, 1912, Vol. II, page
185, paragraph 1028, I am sending
rou herewith instructions for preparl.g
and shipping specimens of porions
of the human body for analysis
n cases of suspected poisoning.
You are required by law in the
)aragraph cited above to deliver these
nstructions to the coroner and to
iach magistrate in your couhty.
In the paragraph cited above the
specimens of portions of the human
)cdy in cases of suspected poisoning
nust be sent by the coroner or other
serson acting as coroner. It is, there?ore,
very desirable that the physi:ians
in your county should be made
acquainted with the instructions endosed
herewith, inasmuch as we are
:ot allowed to do any work for pay
n this Laboratory, and, of course, we
:an not make chemical analyses free
>f charge in cases of suspected poisoning
of human beings when the specimens
are not sent to us in accordance
with the law of the state requiring
such analyses to be made at this s
:ollege. I may say for your information
that it is rather the rule than the
exception for physicians to send specimens,
and we find it necessary to
obtain the authorization of the coroner
before we can make the desired
analysis.
Yours very truly,
R. N. Brackett,
Chief Chemist.
