Coroner Brown Decides He Was Not to Blame for Fatal Automobile Acei- dent

Coroner Franklin III. Brown com- pleted on Friday his investigation of the death of Stanley Cyrul, who died at the Backus hospital on Tuesday from injuries he received on Sunday night, when he was struck on the road below Thamesville by an automobile driven by H. W.,Cardwell.
 The coroner completely exonerated Mir. Cardwell from any blame in the matter and so informed him on Fri day. By his investigation the coroner learned that when Mr. Cardwell first saw the man CyruI put up his hand as if to signal the machine, and MT. Cardwell slowed down and steered so as to clear the man. but just as he was going to pass Cyrul staggered over so that he came up against the mud guard and was knocked down. The car was stopped in it's length and the man got up. But as results proved, the blow was enough to rupture his intestines and he died two days later.
 The coroners investigation further satisfied him in declaring that the man was intoxicated at the time of the accident.
