Abstract

Dossier concerning Li Xingxing (李杏興), an 18-year-old woman from Shaoxing, Zhejiang, whose body was found in a well in Shanghai in November 1948. The police treated the case as a suicide by jumping into a well and prepared a report on the non-natural death, together with statements concerning the discovery of the body and the circumstances surrounding her death. The file also contains judicial inquest records and a detailed corpse examination. The examination identifies the deceased as Li Xingxing, female, aged 18, native of Shaoxing, Zhejiang, and records signs consistent with immersion. The final medico-legal conclusion states that she died after falling into water while alive (生前落水身死).

Comment

Predominantly handwritten Chinese documents on printed police and judicial forms. The dossier includes witness testimony describing the discovery of the deceased in a well. The precise street address is difficult to establish confidently from the handwriting and is therefore not included in the catalogue metadata. The police file characterizes the death as suicide, while the formal medico-legal conclusion records death by falling into water while alive.
