THE TRIAL OF DR. CLARK.
THE AGRA TRAGEDY. London, December 14. At the Agra trial the prosecution read Fulham’s letter to Mrs. Clark, dated April, 1911, as follows:—“It was very thoughtful of you sending for more powders, as only three were left. I don’t think they are having any effect. You say you cannot administer them regularly; then what is the use of them, darling? She will need much more than that., Tell me plainly, what you think.”
Walter Clark, the second son, narrated the circumstances of his mother's poisoning when Bibu was the only cook. Agra, December 14. The doctors testified to terrible bludgeon blows. Joseph, a schoolfellow of Clark’s son, deposed that Clark, while once reading a newspaper with reference to a poisoned lover, said that he had given his wife a dose, but she proved poison-proof. Joseph asked Mrs. Clark for an interview in order to warn her, but his courage failed him. (Received. 9.0 a.m.) Calcutta, December 15.
At the trial Mrs. Fulham states Clark told her that he gave his who arsenic.
