DR. MOTTIER IS STILL ABSENT
Will Not Return and Face "Any Charges" as Was Declared.
HE GIVES UP RESIDENCE
LEASE ON PROPERTY AT NORTH EIGHTH AND A STREETS IS TO BE SURRENDERED AT ONCE IT IS ANNOUNCED.
According to a statement given out last night, Dr. G. A. Mottier, who left the city at the time the recent Grand Jury brought in its report, will not return to Richmond to resume his practice.
It was alleged that the Grand Jury had returned an indictment against Dr. Mottier.
The residence and hospital building of Dr. Mottier on North Eighth street, is not now occupied and the lease will be surrendered.
The matron stated last night that Dr. Mottier felt that there were other places fully as good as Richmond, for the practice of medicine, and that he would probably never return here.
She was asked if she knew where Dr. Mottier was.
She at first stated that she did not, then admitted that she did, but did not care to make known his whereabouts. She stated that Dr. Mottier was being done an injustice by the stories circulated.
Some time ago the Palladium printed a statement brought to this office by friends of Dr. Mottier, to the effect that the doctor would return and face any charge that might be placed against him.
The matron of the hospital was asked last night if it were not true that this statement was given to the Palladium as a blind to throw off the authorities.
She declared that it was not and that at the time the statement was made, Dr. Mottier was fully determined to return.
She said she was not familiar with the business affairs of Dr. Mottier, they being in the hands of his attorney.
