———以《吉林提法司第一次报告书》开学照为起点

【摘 要】 在清末新政的影响下，传统检验中的仵作开始向现代法制意义上的检验吏转型，这一转变的关键却是发生在吉林，这是由吉林省在清末改革中的特殊地位及其与朝廷的充分互动而导致的，它引进了先进的教育，实行了淘汰制的毕业方式，推行了军事化的管理，它为全国提供了大致的改革模版。虽然它存在的时间不久，但它所培训的检验人才直到民国初年都充当了检验中的重要力量。

【Abstract】 Under the Influence of the new politics in Late-Qing Dynasty, a transition from Wu Zuo (a postmortem examiner in the old times ) to inspection beadle in the modern sense of legal institutions was made in Jilin province, which had a special status and full interaction with the Qing Court. The examination school in Jilin provided a template to other provinces, adopting advanced education, knock-out system and military-style regimentation. The graduates had played a key role in the forensic examination until early Republican Era though the school did not last long.
