Murray, of‘Clitheroe, stated [that Mr.- Simpson had been one of his patients for some ten years, i He first saw him concerning hls’ last Illness in November, and carried out a careful examination which revealed'the presence of a tumour, which Mr. Simpson feared was a cancer. : Dr. Briggs, of Blackburn, conducting Independent examina­ tion, confirmed witness’s diagnosis^, and. arrangements were made fori Mr. Simpson to ' enter Blackburn- Infirmary early In the New Yeaiv Mr.i Simpson had visited him jcach week and he gathered that he was ■worried about ploughing on hls farm and about the possibility of hls isons belngi called up for service with the Fortes. : Mr. Simpson’s mental condition varied consider­ ably. Some.'days he was quite cheerfuli'and said he was sleeping better, but onJother days he: was depressed and= spoke of taklngdong walks to calm hls mind. He had never mentioned suicide to him and on December 19th, when he last saw him alive, Mr.i Simpson was reason­ ably cheerful.i r
