MELANCHOLY CASE—DEATH IN
THE FLEET PRISON.
Tuesday a lengthened investigation took place before 3;12.11
Payne, in the Fleet Prison, touching the death of Zacharla
Edwards, aged 35, formerly a Captain in the 12th Royal Lae.
cers, and a favourite godson of his late Majesty William Iv'
Mr. Cooper, surgeon to the prison, examined—l wast_e-ii
called to deceased until three days previous to his death, "Au
took place on Saturday last. I found him labouring un-".
typhus fever, in its worst form, and was told that he had be
el
ill for the five or six preceding days, and had been atteude,,
most by a friendly medical gentleman. I did all I could t-
save him, and, besides the proper medicine, he had all the,
nourishment his state required ; but, notwithstanding, be is-ci
pired on Saturday evening of typhus fever, no doubt produce
by great mental anxiety.
id
Air. Victor Hugh Chemeley, an inmate of the prison, f
that the captain suffered under great menial anxiety, cause,
by his knowing that affluent persons, once, in his prosperitriq
his professed friends, were acquainted with his situation, a, ,
would not free him from it, but actually allowed him to last'
guish, and at length die through want of the common nece_s,l
saries of life. During the time the deceased was here he I%
no funds, and was lit, rally starving. A few potatoes were it.
/.,
sole food for the space of 48 hours. Lately be had drunk fieS' ,
to drown his care:. Deceased's debts, con tracted by haring_.
been made the tool and dupe of others, amounted to betvref
7,000/. and 8,000/. Even deceased's motb.er, an affluent 13°1;
and his brother, a major in the army, hail been applied to by
deceased, and they likewise refused to ass ist him.
Messrs. O'Shaughnessy and Wheelerboard, both prisosierg't
testified to deceased's state of privation iii prison, and said le
he used to complain more of a pain in the heart than in r
bowels. Had it not been for the aid of a Mr. Pugh, a fon 'ire
•
partner of deceased, and now in indifferent circumstances,
ceased would not have received any extraneous aid while
prison from his former friends. When at length decease( `t,
penury was known, both the governor of the prison and
inmates did all in their power for him. Deceased was not a e
habitual drunkard, but latterly had taken to drink to allay tt •
anguish of his mind, and they had no doubt that he died of
• broken heart.
Mr. Richard Oastler, a well-known inmate of the prison,
said that deceased had told him that he was a godson of Wil-
liam the Fourth, and had often when a boy dined at the Royal
table.
The Jury returned the following verdict :—" Died of tyPbu9
fever, brought on by extreme anxiety of mind."
Mr. oa4ler then said that unless some different measures,:
were speedily introduced into that prison the Coroner vi.l,c
ere long have to hold many inquests in it, for it was a Zoo
that many prisoners were dying of broken hearts and 1%,1
want of sufficient necessaries of life, and concealing, thr°''
false pride, the.r real positions.
Ihe Coroner said he would be very happy to have l'Ar-
Oastler's suggestions as to the measures wanted.
Mr. Wider— Let the creditors forego their claims on 910
parties, though I am very certain they %ill not forego min e•
