Title: Agnes McLeish Knox death details
Post by: jimnorah on Wednesday 15 May 19 17:19 BST (UK)
Attached is a clip from the death register of my 3x Great-Aunt Agnes McLeish Knox who died of a Cerebral Haemorrhage in Kirklands Asylum, Bothwell in 1898.
I cannot decipher the line under haemorrhage (usually the period of illness) and I'd be grateful if anyone can help.
Many thanks.

Jim

1 Day is all I could think of but for the life of me I still still struggle to see that. Doesn't surprise me though as some of the writing on these old registers is ridiculous.
Thanks guys, I'm happy to go with one day.

Cerebral hemorrhage probably means a stroke or a cranial aneurysm so 1 day ties in with that.
