Inquests and Deaths Across London Taverns and Workhouses
A crowded inquest at Eagle tavern Brompton-road leads to a verdict of death by visitation of God for artist John George Wilson aged 56 amid suspected poisoning. Separate cases describe suicides, a drowned man found near London Bridge and a stillborn infant, with multiple coroner inquiries into workhouse treatment and a fatal influenza episode. A London hospital accident ends in accidental death, while another case features alleged murder over a landlord's death at Eltham with manslaughter verdict debated by the coroner.
