Details of Event
Died 5th March, 1906. On 20th September, 1905, deceased while engaged at the granary went up a ladder to get some hay down when he either fell off the ladder or it was displaced and caused his fall; he was not seriously hurt and the accident was not reported to me but on his death it was thought that it might have some connection an inquest was held after a postmortem examination when medical evidence showed that death was due to cancer of the bowels and so the jury found.
