FALSE TEETH IN THROAT
Was One of Several Rendered Uncon-
scious by Live Wire.

Evidence at coroner's inquest
into the death OF Edward Kaitting
at Ottawa, Ont, indicated that the
direct cause OF death was the lodging
of his false teeth in his throat Kait-
ting was supposed to have been killed
by receiving two thousand volt cur
rent Of electricity by grasping the
frame work OF the Nassau airship
while it was in contact with live
wire.
Several other persons who were rem
dered unconscious in the same manner
recovered and the doctors say there
was no reason why Kaitting should
not have recovered if the shoch had
not lodged his false teeth in his throat.
