Chief Medical Examiner's journal Monday, April 21 : "I don't suppose even you would consider an inquest at which that suspicious Dr. Simpson officiated as exactly a restful procedure." He laughed. "You're hypersensitive. I'll wager that if you were to canvass every separate person in the house, each one would say that Dr. Simpson suspected him of the murder." Ethel Loban, writing in The Calloused Eye, 1931
