<TEXT>(Note: first sent last night)

Michael Jackson's former personal assistant says he fielded an urgent phone

Michael Williams has been giving evidence in the trial of Dr Conrad Murray -
who denies involuntary manslaughter.

Williams says he was only told that Jackson had a bad reaction to medication,
and had no idea how serious it was.
