Help with cause of death please.

[MIG79]

I do struggle with handwriting and not being medical I can't guess this one.
This is from my G G Grandfather's death certificate, who died a 50 year old agricultural labourer.

The first letter looks the same as the E on the Elizabeth who reported the death.

Thanks

Scrofula - I think its usually associated with tuberculosis.

Looks like you are right Jill

"A form of tuberculosis affecting the lymph nodes, especially of the neck, that is most common in children and is usually spread by unpasteurized milk from infected cows."

Definitely scrofula
