    • INQUEST AT THE WORKHOUSE.
      Mr. E. W. Norris, district coroner, held an inquiry at the Union Workhouse last Saturday morning into the death of Jane Halstead (64), of Golden Row Farm, Heptonstall, who died in the hospital on Wednesday of last week.
      Emma Sutcliffe, daughter, said she had lived with deceased at the above address. Her mother was formerly a weaver, but had not worked for several years as she had been in poor health. Some years ago she had a stroke, from the effects of which she never fully recovered. In January she was attended by Dr. Dowdall, as she had practically lost the use of her right side. During the last week in March she had four falls, and on the 30th she fell whilst witness was in another room. Witness heard her fall and on running into the room found that she had crept on her knees to a cradle in order to attend to the baby. She then crept back to the table and tried to get up but was unable to do so. She told witness that she had seen the baby trying to get out the cradle, so she Jumped up in a hurry, upsetting the buffet on which she was sitting, and falling heavily. Witness added that with the assistance of a neighbour she got her mother into a chair and sent for the doctor, who found that she had dislocated her hip. On the next day deceased was taken to the Workhouse Hospital, as the doctor said she needed watching night and day. Deceased had complained of dizziness for a week or two. A few years ago she had had an epileptic seizure.
      Dr. Thorp: Deceased told me she had had a fall Burnley, and hurt her leg.—Witness agreed that she had had a fall, but was not aware that she had hurt herself, adding that she had walked badly for the past twenty years.
      Giving evidence, Dr. Thorp said that deceased was admitted to hospital on March 31st, When he saw her on the following day she was semi-conscious but not conscious of any pain. There was about two inches of shortening in the right leg, with bruises the right hip and left thigh. There was a fracture of the neck of the femur, and he came to the conclusion, after treatment, that this was of many years' standing. The present trouble was due to cerebral hemorrhage. She had developed some bed sores and died on May 3rd. The cause of death was cerebral hemorrhage, due to senile degeneration of the arteries.
      The Coroner gave his verdict in accordance with the above,
