Inquest Notice South Australian Chronicle & Weekly Mail 4 January 1873 On Saturday evening, 28th December, Dr Clindening, J.P., held an inquest at the Royal Oak, Hindley-street, touching the death of George Ottaway, who died that morning. Mr. R. Gully was foreman of the Jury. Elizabeth Ottaway, widow of the deceased, deposed that about 5 o'clock that morning she was disturbed by the deceased falling out of bed.She propped him up with pillows, and immediately called a Mr. Shoebridge and a Mr. Jackson for assistance. They came, and after lifting deceased on the bed, they said he was dead. Deceased never spoke. He had not taken any intoxicating drink before going to bed. He had been an invalid for years. Dr. John Fisher stated that he received an order from the Destitiute Board to visit the deceased some time ago. Found him paralysed and beyond all cure. A short time ago he was rather worse, and witness visited and prescribed for him. He rallied, and witness discontinued his visits; but he was in such a state that witness was not at all surprised to hear of his death. Considered an inquest un-necessary, and would have given a certificate of death had he been applied to for it. Attributed his death to natural causes. The Jury returned the verdict that deceased died from "natural causes". With reference to Dr. Fisher's evidence, we learn that the coroner who issued the precept for an inquest did so on the information given by the policeman, that he was unable to obtain a certificate of death.
