    Harold Metcalf, MD, city of Wickford, conducted the exhumation. The body was in a natural state of decomposition, with nothing exceptional existing. Harold removed the heart and the liver from the body, some blood dripped, but this was not considered unusual. The cremation was carried out by the attendants.

    Bram Stoker was apparently familiar with this case and it may have been an influence for Dracula which was written in 1897.
