Sudden Death of Mr James Stoten
The Coroner's Verdict
We regret to announce that Mr James Stoten, of Cherry Green, met with a sudden death on Thursday in last week. The deceased, who was 82 years of age, was found dead in a pig-sty near his house. He had been in ill health for some time.
A post-mortem examination was made the following day, and the facts reported to the District Coroner (Mr H.F.J. Banham), who held an enquiry at Cherry Green on Friday evening.
After hearing the evidence of Dr Dixon and other witnesses, the Coroner said he would return a verdict of "Death from natural causes."
The funeral of the deceased took place at Westmill Church on Tuesday afternoon last. There were many expressions of sympathy, the deceased being well known and respected in the village.
