(BY TELEGRAPH —PRESS ASSOCIATION.) WELLINGTON; Sept. 10. The inquest concerning the death of Albert Hollway was concluded to-day. The bov, Ronald Roper, who was riding the bicycle which knocked deceased down, said the machine struck the deceased lightly on the right leg. The impact did not carry him past where Holhvay fell.. Deceased was watching a passing motor-car. The coroner, in returning a . verdict that deceased died from a fractured skull, receded bv being knocked down by a bicycle ridden by Roper, remarked that it was an accident likely to happen once in a thousand times. At the rate the man was walking and the boy riding no one ivould expect an accident to happen. In the great majority of cases the bicycle would have struck the man and he would not have been knocked down. .It must have caught him off the balance. . • "
