FATAL ACCIDENT AT CAMBRIDGE.—CAMBRIDGE
m
MAY 31.—A jury was impannelled this morning at Fut.

ofeJ,ochannaNbtrchidgole,Launxd
a oo

of
ttheVerystudent
Rev the Dean of St. Asaph, who met his death under
the following circumstances, narrated in evidence :
The deceased and a fellow-student started the evening
of St. St.
before for a ride, and proceeded in the direction of
Abington. At Babraham they turned off, and again
on reaching the old Roman road leading to Cambridge.
Hi-re Mr. Luxmoore's companion. (Mr. Stuart, of Tri-
nity) proposed a race, and the horses were put into a
ga:lop. Mr. Stuart took the lead, and after proceeding
a short distance missed the sounds of his friend's horse.
Ile looked round, and saw Mr. Luxmoore lying on his
back on the ground; he returned to his aid, and found
him uneonscieus. Mr. Stuart then summoned help, .and
on its arrival went for medical assistance, but the unfor-
tunate young gentleman ditel within a few minutes of
Mr. Stuart's departure. Evidence was adduced to show
that the road at the spot where the race began
.was
smooth and safe, but that it became dangerous as it pro-
ceeded, and was full of ruts where the accident occurred;
into one of those the horse doubtless stepped and fell,
and Mr. Luxmoore was thrown upon his - head.
The deceased was about 18 years of age; he had been
to College Chapel just before starting on the fatal ex-
cursion, and was reputed a very exemplary young man.
Ho was in delicate health, and his friends, wishing-him
to take horse exercise, had sent him a horse up to Cam-
bridge to enable him to do so. The jury returned a
verdict that 6. The deceased came by his death- through
an accidental fall from his horse." It was stated at the
inquest that the unfortunate gentleman's father is on the
continent, and his tutor, who was present, accepted the
care of his remains until the wishes of LL friend. with
regard to their disposal are known.
