 Blfven are the only deaths that oc- cured on the Connecticut side of the Pdwcatuck river. The coroner made inquiries as to the death of Bliven, but made no special investigation, as he considered the conditions different than in the Larrow and Hood cases.
 The two deaths in Pawcatuck were followed in the evening by the deaths of Cornelius Crandall and Joseph Bent in Main street. On Friday Lena Blanchard, who declared that she bought whislzey in Westerly the pre- ceding day, died in Avondale. Satur- day afternoon William Perrin died in ASl1away, and in the evening Edward Doherty died suddenly in Moss street All the Rhode Island cases have re- the medical examiner, but as there vas no suspicious circumstances in connection with the deaths there was no investigation by the coroner.

 It is not very long ago that three sudden deaths occurred, not far apart, ing intoxicating liquor to excess very frequently, but not even a hint was expressed that they died from drink ing poisoned whiskey.
