SHE WAS POISONED.
But the Jury Find She Administered
the Drug Herself.

Coroner Weldon yesterday held an
inquest in the case of the colored woman
who died on Friday at the Buena Vista
house. 1t was at first suspected by
some of her friends that she had been
poisoned in order to keep her from giving
damaging testimony at an arson trial
soon to come off, but this theory was
not sustained at the inquisition.
After examininga a number OF witnesses
and hearing the report of the physicians
who made the post mortem, the jury
rendered a verdict to the effect that the
woman, Mrs. Maggie Fingers. aged
about %, came to her death from an
overdose of morphine, administered by
her own hands, but whether accidentally
or with suicidal intent is not stated
in the findings of the jury.
