A child killed by a cherry stone.
An inquest was held yesterday at the "Traveller's Home Tavern," Woolwich, before Mr C J Carttar, coroner for
West Kent, on the body of John Smith, 5 years of age, the son of a
carpenter, residing at 26, Joseph Street, Woolwich. The evidence proved
that on Thursday last the child swallowed a cherry stone, which remained
in his throat and cause such pain, that Mr Hughes, a surgeon, was sent
for, who advised the immediate removal of the sufferer to hospital. This
was not acted upon, and on the following day the child appeared to be better, but subsequently relapsed and death resulted.
A post mortem
examination had been made, and, after hearing the evidence, the jury
returned a verdict, "That death resulted from suffocation, consequent
upon swallowing a cherry stone." |
