On September 20, Senior-constable M'lvor, stationed at Randwick, reported to the Acting Coroner that " about 8 p.m. on the 19th instant Susan Yeomans, a widow, aged 48 years, died suddenly at her residence, Allison
road, Randwick. For the last few days deceased complained to her daughter Emily of being unwell, hut had no medical attendance. About 8 p.m. on the 19th instant, feeling unwell, she retired to bed, and expired shortly afterwards. Her daughter Emily was present when death occurred. Dr. Clubbe, of Randwick, was called in, and pronounced life extinct, but declined to give a certificate as to tho cause of death." The Acting Coroner received the following letter on the samo day:-" Randwick, September 19, 1887. Sir, I have the honour to report that I was this evening (9 p.m.) called to tho house of Mrs. Yeomans, Allison-road, Randwick. On my arrival I found she was dead. She had apparently died in a fit, and I have no reason to suppose the death was duo to other than natural causes. Some years ago I attended Mrs. Yeomans, and she was then suffering from heart
disease.-I have, &a., O. F. B. Clübbe. To Captain Fisher, J.P., Acting Coroner." On perusing these two communications, Captain Fisher ondorsod
the police report, " Inquest not necessary, vide Dr. Clubbe'a letter." Inquiries were made yesterday at the Registrar-General's office as to whether the " cause of death" column' had been duly filled up in the official records relating to tho woman's decease, and it was found that the quarterly return from the registrar of tho district in question had not yet been sent in.

From the newspaper accounts and bdm records we can see that
