A DISPENSER'S END.
VICTIM TO MORPHIA AND COCAINE.
The City Coroner (Dr. Ramsay Smith) conducted an enquiry into the circum- stances surrounding the death of Thomas John Fridy, at the Adelaide Police Court on Thursday.
Fridy was assistant dispenser at the Adelaide Hospital, Michael Fridy stated that the deceased was his son, aged 32. For some years past he had been in indifferent health and he had been under two operations.
Alfred Herbert Bonney, porter at the Adelaide Hospital said he went to the out patients' dispensary about 3.15 p.m. on June 12 and saw the deceased lying on the floor, apparently in a fit.
With help he carried the prostrate man to the consulting room and went for the medical superintendent.
![Page 25: The Evolution of Pharmacy at Royal Adelaide Hospital](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568159a4550346895dc6fdc9/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Dr. de Crespigny, medical superintendent at the hospital, said when he saw the deceased he was struggling violently and in the witness' opinion was suffering from poisoning.
He died in from 7 to 10 minutes after he saw him.
The witness suspected he had been taking morphia from time to time, and the deceased told him so about four or five months ago.
He had also been taking cocaine lately.
Dr. Angas Johnson said he made a post-mortem examination of the deceased and found that all the organs of the body were healthy except the liver, which was affected with hydatids.
In his opinion death was due to an alkaloidal poisoning.
![Page 26: The Evolution of Pharmacy at Royal Adelaide Hospital](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568159a4550346895dc6fdc9/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Dr. de Crespigny examined the dispensary and found all the bottles of the preparations of morphia were empty, also a 6 oz. bottle of sulphate of atropine solution. In ordinary circumstances they would not be empty as they were used daily.
Things were much confused on the shelves and on the floor of the dispensary, and the contents of the bottles of drugs had been spilt.
The Coroner found that deceased came to his death from poisoning, self administered, while in an unsound state of mind.
