Witnesses will be produced to explain how the exact height of the original man can be ascertained from such remains as exist. The height was five feet, ten inches and a half - exactly the height of Parkman. The Doctor was a person of peculiar form and shape, and the remains are those of such a person. In the bones found in the furnace not one portion disagreed with any portion of the body found in the vault of the laboratory. Some of the bones showed evidences of having been fractured before being put Into the furnace.
