Cause death pregnancy-related COMPLETED
« on: Saturday 04 April 09 17:44 BST (UK) »
Hi all

I am having trouble working out the last line of the cause of death of Martha BEECH, died 23 Sep 1896 aged 37 years

The story handed down the family is that she died following a seizure in which she fell into the fire

I can make out:
Hystero-Epilepsy
many years
Parturition 3 months
?????????
Certified by
Frederick Cant
L.R.C.P. Lond

There's no sign in the registers of a birth/death corresponding to this episode

Please, any help with the last line of the cause of death greatly appreciated

I think the word below 3 months is exhaustion.
