Strange Coincidence
Wellington, This Day. Robert Webster, for eight years a butcher on the Gothic, died suddenly of bronchial pneumonia. A coincidence in connection with the man's death is that when a telegram was sent to hia brother in Christohurch announcing the fact the reply came back that he too had died suddenly. A Suspicious Death. The inquest on James Campbell, who died at the hospital recently from acute peritoni;ie, was resumed to-day. Several witnesses gave evidence that deceased had said he had been jumped on by the arresting constable, when reminded by the watch house keeper that he had said a little before that he must have been drugged, deceased made no remark. The inquest was not concluded.
