"Result of a Post Mortem on Body of Hallock"
"The body of Frank Hallock who was killed in the duel with Edwin Rowse at Idaho Springs last Wednesday evening [April 15] was brought to this city Saturday [April 18] morning by the wife of the deceased, Prof. J. F. [sic] Hallock, the father and George Hallock, a brother.
In the afternoon a post mortem examination was made by Drs. F.N. Cochems and T.L. A. Shaffer, at the Red Cross hospital which was pronounced by these gentlemen to have been the most difficult ever participated in by them owing to the course taken by one of the leaden missiles and its final lodgement in the muscles and tissue of the body.
. . . By reference to the account the Denver Republican, whose reporter was an eye-witness to the examination we learn that . . .
. . . [description of how bullets entered and passed through body]
Professor Hallock, father of the dead man who, by the way, is one of the pioneer residents of this city, has been under the impression all along that one of the shots was fired from the rear and that his son was the vicitim of a bullet in the back from some other source than Rouse, the man who is now in the hands of Clear Creek county officials and charged with murder, and there were a number of others who shared his opinion but the result of the post mortem does not seem to bear out this theory. All important points in the case will more fully develop in the tiral which is to be had at the next term of district court in Clear Creek county.
The funeral service over the remains of deceased was held at 2:30 on Sunday [April 19] afternoon in this city, Rev John Wallis Ohl, rector of the Church of the Ascension officiating and interment was in Fairview cemetry [sic]." END
