DARLEY ABBEY
INQUEST AT THE SCHOOLROOM. Mr W H Whiston, district coroner,
held an inquest at the schoolroom, Darley Abbey, on Saturday
night regarding the sudden death of Eliza Tivey, aged 58, wife
of a nut and bolt maker living at Darley Abbey, which occurred
very suddenly early on Saturday morning. It appeared from the
evidence adduced that the deceased on Friday evening was with
her husband at the Palmerston Arms, Back Parker-street, Derby
and left at 11 o’clock in company with her son to go home to
Derby. On the way home Mrs Tivey was taken suddenly ill. Her
breathing became very heavy, and she fell to the ground. Her
son, Henry Tivey, endeavoured to convey her home, but could not
until a commercial traveller named Ward, living at Derby came to
his assistance. Between them they got her to her home, but she
was unconscious, and died very soon afterwards. Death was due to
apoplexy, and the jury returned a verdict to this effect. |
