1889 CDN 17.12.1889: Sudden Death of an Infant.—An inquest was held this afternoon, at the Arms, Gwydir-street, before Mr. Henry Gotobed, touching the death of Grace Emily Clark, aged eight months, daughter of Edward Clark, poulterer, of 61, Gwydir-street. The evidence given at the inquest showed that the child had a cold, and was subject to “wheezing,” but had not been so ill as to cause any serious apprehension. On Sunday morning, however, when the mother awoke, she found the child dead by her side.—Mr. Apthorp, surgeon, who made a postmortem examination, was of opinion that the cause of death was bronchial complaints. A verdict accordingly was returned.

About an hour afterwards he again passed the shop in a cart and saw the pails and footbaths in the same position. The horse shied at the articles and fell down, breaking the shafts of the cart.
