Details of Event
Deceased had been on his right side holing, and on taming over on to his left side he twisted himself. He was taken home and died on the following night. A post-mortem examination showed that deceased had ruptured his stomach through the floor of an old ulcer, thus causing acute peritonitis, from which he died.
