Help with cause of death please
« on: Monday 11 February 13 09:41 GMT (UK) »
My great aunt died in San Francisco in 1924 - Cause of death is cerebral hemorrhage, but I can't figure out the other words to the right of "cerebral hemorrhage". Thanks

The "interstitial 4 yr" refers to the nephritis, i.e. chronic interstitial nephritis.
