Mr. James Van Every 16*1-2 Hanna Building Cleveland, Ohio
Dear Mr* Van Every;
In reply to your letter of
August 27 I wish to state that a necropsy was performed
on Dr. H. G. Prltsker at the Huron
Eoao^WpSfii^BSuT^may be possible for you to obtain a
copy of his report by communicating with him. I do not
believe that it is a general practice for necropsy reports
to be made public or separated from the general hospital
records, nor do I see what particular interest it is to
your company to have this record. The clinical diagnosis
on Xriyncvich was acute lead intoxication and in view of,
the fact that there is no characteristic pathological
picture to be found in death from this condition, it would
seem that not much would be gained from the report in
question, other than such benefit as might be Obtained by
the exclusion of evidence of other diseases.
s
111 I am afraid that I cannot send you a copy of the chemical analyses which we carried out on the material which was furnished us. Theseanalytical results are matters1, of scientific interest only and are of course subject to interpretation, only in the light of similar cases and similar observations upon individuals who have
not had lead exposures
Very truly yburs.
