[http://crimehub.co.uk/index.php?title=Dr_Timothy_Robert_Killeen Dr Timothy Robert Killeen] conducted the post-mortem.
<br>The summary of wounds given to the inquest on 9th August 1888 were:<BR><BR>
* An effusion of blood between the scalp and the bone
* The lower portion of the body was penetrated in one place
* Death was due to haemorrhage and loss of blood
<BR>Dr Killen went on to make the following deductions:<br><BR>
* There was no evidence of a struggle
* One of the wounds, he contended, might have been made by a left-handed person, but the rest appeared to have been inflicted by a right-handed person * Two different weapons had been used
