Kaiapoi.—On Monday last, an inquest was held before Dr. Dudley, Coroner, at the Kaikainui Hotel, on the body of William Samuel Smith, son of Mr. S. P. Smith of the Waimakariri Ferry, who died on Saturday last at the house of Messrs. Belcher. From the evidence it appeared that deceased was 17 years of age ; that he had for some weeks past been working for Messrs. Belcher, and was in good health on Friday the 6th inst. On that day he returned as usual from work, and went out to visit a friend, and went to bed on his return home. On Saturday morning he was sleeping soundly, and did not rise with the other men, who leu him and went to work. On their return in the middle of the day they found him still sleeping, and were unable to arouse him. Being alarmed they sent for Dr. Dudley; but he was dead before Dr. Dudley arrived. A post mortem examination was made by Dr. Beswick. The jury returned a verdict of " Died from congestion of the brain."
