But
Dorcas
was
unshaken
.
Quite
an
hour
,
or
even
more
,
had
elapsed
between
the
time
when
she
had
heard
the
voices
and
five
o
’
clock
,
when
she
had
taken
tea
to
her
mistress
.
The
inquest
was
held
on
Friday
at
the
Stylites
Arms
in
the
village
.
Poirot
and
I
sat
together
,
not
being
required
to
give
evidence
.
The
preliminaries
were
gone
through
.
The
jury
viewed
the
body
,
and
John
Cavendish
gave
evidence
of
identification
.
Further
questioned
,
he
described
his
awakening
in
the
early
hours
of
the
morning
,
and
the
circumstances
of
his
mother
’
s
death
.
The
medical
evidence
was
next
taken
.
There
was
a
breathless
hush
,
and
every
eye
was
fixed
on
the
famous
London
specialist
,
who
was
known
to
be
one
of
the
greatest
authorities
of
the
day
on
the
subject
of
toxicology
.
In
a
few
brief
words
,
he
summed
up
the
result
of
the
post
-
mortem
.
Shorn
of
its
medical
phraseology
and
technicalities
,
it
amounted
to
the
fact
that
Mrs
.
Inglethorp
had
met
her
death
as
the
result
of
strychnine
poisoning
.
Judging
from
the
quantity
recovered
,
she
must
have
taken
not
less
than
three
-
quarters
of
a
grain
of
strychnine
,
but
probably
one
grain
or
slightly
over
.
“
Is
it
possible
that
she
could
have
swallowed
the
poison
by
accident
?
”
asked
the
Coroner
.
“
I
should
consider
it
very
unlikely
.
Strychnine
is
not
used
for
domestic
purposes
,
as
some
poisons
are
,
and
there
are
restrictions
placed
on
its
sale
.
”
“
Does
anything
in
your
examination
lead
you
to
determine
how
the
poison
was
administered
?
”
“
No
.
”
