But it is a matter which applies itself strongly to the consciences of the judges in mitigation of the punishment .
2 .
When a person has died ,
and it is suspected he has been starved to death ,
an examination of his body ought to be made ,
to ascertain whether or not he died of hunger .
The signs which usually attend death from hunger are the following :
The body is much emaciated ,
and a foetid ,
acrid odor exhales from it ,
although death may have been very recent .
The eyes are red and open ,
which is not usual in other causes of death .
The tongue and throat are dry ,
even to aridity ,
and the stomach and intestines are contracted and empty .
The gall bladder is pressed with bile ,
and this fluid is found scattered over the stomach and intestines ,
so as to tinge them very extensively .
The lungs are withered ,
but all the other organs are generally in a healthy state .
The blood vessels are usually empty .
