Details of Event
Deceased expired at home and said he had received an injury in the quarry on 4th July. The jury returned a verdict that 'he died from peritonitis' and that the evidence of an accident was so slender that we cannot attribute his death to a slight slip he may have made in the quarry or elsewhere.'.
