The Jury Verdict On a Self Inflicted Wound Case
A juror states the deceased shot himself with a handkerchief tied to the musket trigger. The inquest finds the seeker’s death due to temporary aberration of mind as witnesses describe the scene and the body found near Chatham. The report also notes another drowning verdict near Sheerness and a bishop’s accident in Falmouth. A Liverpool inquest into Catherine Carney’s death returns wilful murder verdict against unknown assailants.
