■ FOR, DEFENSE. Dr. Pettigrew examined for Defense.—Made post mortem on the body of John Cullen. Found the surface of the body livid: 6 wounds : one on the left side of the chest, about two inches downward and inward from the left nipple—an incised wound, the incision on the surface an inch and a half —the wound in such a form, as though the knife had run downward and inward about an inch farther—incision through the soft parts almost to the ribs : in probing with the ling er and dissecting down to the terminus of the wound found that it had not penetrated the thorax no? the’; ■td,bomb a.'
