Cause of Death from 1895

[DaniO]

Hi all,

I am struggling to read the cause of death on this death cert of a male ancestor who was a Stevedore and died on 15th December 1895 in London aged 46.

It looks like there are four words/lines followed by the certified by part.

Can anyone help decipher it?

Thank you,

Dani

The first 3:

phthisis
pulmonatis
haemoptysis

Pulomonalis not …tis

Last word of the 4 is Exhaustion

[DaniO]

Thank you both very much!

In case it's not obvious, Phthisis pulmonalis is a single item - tuberculosis of the lungs.

Thank you, Bookbox. I looked it up and quite a nasty way to go, coughing up blood too.
