Ernest Bradshaw lived with his wife, Ninevah Ellen Jane Bradshaw, aged 39 years,
and her mother, Mrs Maria Jane Brien, aged 70 years, and other relatives. When Dr.
Blaubaum arrived he was told that Mrs Bradshaw, who had been in ill-health for
some time, had been found in a room in the house in a state of collapse some
minutes earlier, and apparently suffering great pain. Dr. Blauhaum found that the
woman was suffering from the effects of poison. Later a bottle containing a
poisonous liquid was found in the room. Mrs Bradshaw did not respond to the
treatment of the doctor and she died shortly after his arrival. Her body was taken
