received while riding a horse in a steeplechase at Wigton

race two horses preceding the one which deceased
rode fell ut a water leap, and in order to avoid riding over
them the deceased pulled towards the rails, and, pulling
too near, the horse ran against a hurdle, shivered it to
atoms, and fell, rolling over its rider, who sustained
severe internal injuries. He was picked up insensible

following evening. The jury, without hearing, e vidence
from medical men, returned a verdict of Accidental
death."
