THE PERKINS INQUEST
To Be Resumed January 18
[Welland Tribune, 11 January 1907]
The sudden and unexpected death of Henry Perkins, the carpenter working at Welland who went to his home at Canfield to spend Christmas and died there that day, and the opening of the inquest has already been reported in this paper.
The stomach of deceased was sent to Toronto for analysis and the inquest will be resumed on Jan. 18. The Hamilton spectator says that Dr. Bauer, who held the post mortem, told his reporter that his opinion was that Perkins’ death was due to organic causes.
Perkins was a well-to-do resident, owning a house and farm near Canfield where he had lived nearly all his life. He had a wife but no family. So far as known he had no enemies who would seek his life.
