Help with deciphering a death register
« on: Sunday 26 April 20 11:57 BST (UK) »
I have attached the cause of death details of Margaret (Peggy) McInnes who died 1895 on the Isle of Skye.
I can read 'Pulmonary Phthisis 7 months occurring during' and what looks like insanity but I can't make out the next word.
Any suggestions?

I think it says 7 months again

(Probably had tubercular lesions in brain).

I would agree - 7 months is repeated

Thanks to both - it seems pretty clear now that it is 7 months.
Don't know why I didn't see it before!
