(No. 88.)
I Benjamin Church, jun. of lawful age, testify and say, that
being requested by Mr. Robert Pierpont the Coroner, to
assist in examining the body of Crispus Attucks, who was sup-
posed to be murdered by the soldiers on Monday evening the
5th instant, I found two wounds in the region of the Thorax,
the one on the right side, which entered thro' the second true
Rib within an inch and a half of the Sternum, dividing the
Rib and separating the cartilaginous extremity from the Ster-
num, the ball passed obliquely downward thro' the Diaphragm
and entering thro' the large Lobe of the Liver and the Gall-
Bladder, still keeping its oblique direction, divided the Aorta
Descendens just above its division into the Iliacs, from thence
it made its exit on the left side of the Spine. This wound I
apprehended was the immediate cause of his death. The other
ball entered the fourth of the false Ribs, about five inches
from the linen alba, and descending obliquely passed through
the second false Rib, at the distance of about eight inches from
the Linea Alba ; from the oblique direction of the wounds, I
apprehend the gun must have been discharged from some ele-
vation, and further the deponent saith not.
