COROICIER'S INQUEST.—On Tuesday forenoon 00,.
W. Carter, Coroner for Surrey, held an inquest at the
_W.L.e.
nut-tree, Lambeth-walk, on view of the body of 1 Vi,rr
Mary Anderson, a widow lady, lately residing at No. v"''
Riehmonds•street, Walnut-tree-walk, who died suddenly ""
her b.,d on Thursday, last. Mary Rivers deposed that b
tween eleven and twelve o'clock on Thursday night she %a* s
awoke by a loud knocking in the deceased's bedroom. WiAV '
ness immediately ran up stairs, and found deceased in b
groaning heavily. She almost immediately after becsole,
in-ensib:e. Witness called in medical assistance, but the de"
ceased was dead before the surgeon arrived. Has no reas(LO
to believe that •the deceased had taken•poison. Mr. M. r`'
Wagstaff, surgeon, of Waleot-place, said he was ca":
in to see the deceased, and found her quite dead.
were no marks of violence on the body, and witness could -
not perceive that she had taken any narcotic or poison.
could not say positively what was the cause of death;
probably arose from disease of the heart. Mr. Anderson/
having been sworn, said the deceased was his mother. Wit-
ness believed that she had saved a considerable stun tel
money, which she kept in two bags. The deceased had told
witness that in case of her death he was well provided for ; s..A
she had also frequently lent him sums of money, which, he low
repaid to her. The deceased dined with witness on Christmas'
day, and was then in very good health. Witness saw her 01'-
1 hursday last, and upon calling at her residence on Frilay Lb:
found hat she was dead. On entering her apartments
found the contents of the drawers, &c., turned upside doll;
He discovered two empty bags, which he knew to have bele •
formerty filled with money, and all the cash he could find in L,",„
room amounted to seven farthings. The witness concluded v
stating that he felt certain his mother's property had been Peri,
loined, and hoped the Coroner would grant him a search-of
rant to examine the other lodgers' rooms. The Coroner °lf
served that they had met to determine the cause of death. e
Mr. Anderson had any just ground of suspicion, his 641„rid
would be to apply to a magistrate. He (the Coroner) we 'e,
advise him, however, to make another search before he did so,
Other witnesses having been examined, the jury without hie'e;al
tation returned a verdiV in accordance with the M
testimony.
