Mission, had been found dead in her
bed. Coroner Nadeau hastened to the
spot. and held an inquest with jury of

Of San Francisco, aged 20 years; that
she was in good health tho night be-
fore, and ate hearty supper; at IL
O'Clock / tried TO get. her to give the
baby some water; she was asleep, and
| got the water myself. She went to
Avis house In the evening, and per-
haps was excited; she had been bilious.
I discovered her to be dead at in the
morning. She must have died between
9 and 7 o'clock.
The jury found verdict of death
from natural causes" and DR.. Nadeau,
