Board of Health and shall only give the total OIL
d last weeks mortality, which was 1877. There was
one last lingering, solitary case Of yellow fever in
a cluded in the report.
L CORoNERis ISoUEsTs.-Coroner Daunoy Yesterday
/ held an inquest the body Of Charles Williams, alias
!, Peterson, man who got aboard the steamship
Charles Morgan at Galveston, being very sickly and
feeble then, and who died on board the steamer whilst
e she was coming up the river, on Sunday Verdict
consumption. He was poor man, about IS years of
age, and came over on deck.
Yesterday the Coroner was called to view the body
Of an infant which died at its parents residence in
the upper part of the Fourth District on Saturday
The father stated that he knew what caused the
chds death, and that he knew no inquest was neces
sary but he had other way of getting burial GER
titcate than by sending for the Coroner A doctor,
he said, had waited the child till it died and then
refused to give certificate unless his bill was paid
The father, poor man, had only $14, and he wanted
to bury the child with it he begged the doctor to
trust him; the doctor refused; he then offered to 20
and get his employer to go his security still the doc
tor refused saying, No money, no certificate, and
left the poor man in his trouble.
The Coroner informs us that this is not the only
case of the kind that has happened lately We are
not aware that doctors have any right to act in such
manner and are Of opinion that there ought to be
some kind of legislation for the benefit Of such doe
tors as those to whom we here aude.
