Details of Event
In shoving a tub or tub along a parting he appears to have twisted or wrenched his knee, from which fluid resulted in the joint. An operation was performed on it at the Royal United Hospital, Bath, but death resulted from septic arthritis. One of the simplest of accidents, which might occur almost in one's own drawing room. (Hand haulage.)
