Inquests In Bethnal Green
On Tuesday, Mr Humphreys held inquests at the Prince of Wales Tavern, Bonner-road, Bethnal Green, on the bodies of Joseph Francis Dobinson, aged 64 years; [& others].
In the case of the deceased man Dobinson, it appeared that he was a shoemaker, and resided at 1, Montford-place, Three Colts-lane. He had been unwell for some time past with a sore thumb, which arose from some poisoned leather upon which he had been at work. Up to Thursday last, however, he seemed to get about as usual, but on that day he was seized with a shivering, and was attended by Dr Mainwaring, but the following morning he expired, and the result of an examination by Dr Mainwaring showed that death was due to natural causes, but accelerated by blood poisoning from the sore thumb. A verdict to that effect was accordingly returned.
