"What did the defendant tell you he
did for a living.”
Did Rsmrch Work.
“Why, he said he was doing research
work for Dr. Muller." .
Dr, Muller. who was Waite'a New
York physician. had testified that he
(Waite) obtained through me a quan-l
tity of arsenic shortly before 3L.
Peck’s death. Waite told him, he said,
that he wanted the poison to “kill
some cats." Previously, Waite had
said he was interested in the study
of bacteriology, and Dr. Muller had ro-
commended a formér instructor of his.
Waite already has confessed that he
inoculated the aged Mrs. Peck with
deadly disease germs, from which
died a few weeks before her husband.
When Mrs. Horton was excused from
the stand. Mr. Deuel asked the court
to instruct the jury to disregard all
testimony about White's study of baov
teriology. The court so instructed the
Jury. The state then rested, and Mr.
Dcuel made formal motion for the dis-

Percy Peck 'said the only incident

Waite was that on one occasion Mr.
Peck sent to Mrs. Waite a, check for
3200 instead of $300. Witness said
that Waite sent the check back with a
letter in which he wrote that he was
fable to take care of his wife himself."
; Later Mr. Peck sent Dr. 'Waite a check
for 3300. ‘
‘ A letter written by Waite to Mrs.
‘John E. Peck, in October, 1916, con-
lcerning “father's financial obligations
‘to Clara” was introduced. Dr. Percy
, Schurtz, who said he made the autop-
gsy on March 18, the day Peck's body
arrived in Grand Rapids, from New
.York, corroborated the testimony of
other physicians as to the presence
of arsenic in the body and declared it
undoubtedly produced death.

Mr. Deuel announced in his opening
