on a charge of lunacy. sworn out oy MS
wife before Squire Darracott, died OF
lockjaw In the county jail yesterday
morning at AS o'clock.
DR.. Chalkley was summoned to the
Jail Sunday morning by Jailer russell,
who thought Thomas to be In dying
condition. The doctor found the negro
suffering from Iockjaw. and as last
resource to save his life. he amputated
his left hand above the wrist. but ne
was too late to be OF any service.
The coroner's jury held an Inquest on
the body OF the deceased yesterday at
ff:3o O'clock and found that he had come
to his death from lockjaw caused by
a gun-shot wound. accidently inflicted
by himself. The jury attached no blame
10 any one. and in the finding OF their
verdict exonerated the county officials
and DR.. Chacklcy from blame, they hav-
ing done everything possible to save the
deceased life.
THE INQUEST.
During the inquest the following facts
were developed while Or Chalkley was
on the stand. when l was called 10 see
Thomas on the morning of the 9tn," said
Or. Chackley. IL found a gun-shot wound

fed Judge Wickham. telling him tnat

that an operation was most urgent.

alton Sunday
DIED FOR LACK OF ATTENTION.
DR.. Charley further stated that he
did not believe Thomas would have died
had he been able to perform the opera
ton when he first saw the negro.
81 had every reason to expect lockjaw,
said the doctor. II put Thomas under
a choral treatment. and also con-
suited two or three physicians who were
of the same opinion as myself, namely,
that the negro was threatened with lock-
law and that an immediate operation
was necessary
