Mrs Bradnum been morphine, heroin or barbiturates, this might have been apparent from the liver, but Camps did not order toxicology tests, considering he could not be sure in the state of the internal organs what comprised the remains of the liver. 22 February 1954 – Clara Neil Miller, died aged 87. Adams often locked the door when he saw her – for up to twenty minutes at a time. A witness, Dolly Wallis, asked Clara about this, and she said he was assisting her in "personal matters": pinning on brooches, adjusting her dress. His fat hands were "comforting" to her. Wallis also claimed that Clara appeared to be under the influence of drugs. Early that February, the coldest for many years, Adams had sat with her in her room for forty minutes. A nurse entered, unnoticed, and saw Clara's "bed clothes all off... and over the foot rail of the bed, her night gown up around her chest and the window in the room open top and bottom", while Adams read to her from the Bible. When later confronted by Hannam regarding this, Adams said "The person who told you that doesn't know why I did it".

Her funeral was arranged by Adams and only he and Annie Sharpe, the owner of the guest house, were present. Annie Sharpe received £200 in Clara's will. Adams tipped the vicar a guinea after the ceremony. Clara Neil Miller was one of the two bodies exhumed during the police investigation on 21 December 1956.

Small amounts of morphine and barbiturates were also found, but not in sufficient quantities to draw any conclusions. According to prescription records, Adams had not prescribed anything to treat the bronchopneumonia. 14 March 1956 – Alfred John Hullett died, aged 71. He was the husband of Gertrude Hullett. Sometime in the 1940s, Adams falsely claimed to Alfred Hullett that he (Hullett) needed an urgent operation; Hullett consulted another doctor and Adams's claim was revealed to be absolutely false. Still, Adams remained Hullett's friend. In November 1955, Adams diagnosed Hullett with cancer in his abdomen (same diagnosis as in the case of
