DEATH IN MOTOR CAR.
INQUEST AT WELLINGTON
Per Press Association
WELLINGTON, April 17. At about four o’clock on the afternoon of April 11 a car was found on the footpath in Jervois Quay and a n\an inside was dead, with a wound on his forehead. Deceased was Joseph Nind, and it seemed probable that he had had a heart seizure and had lost control of the car, which afterwards struck a lamp post. The inquest, which was held to-day, did not disclose this with certainty, but the medical evidence was to the effect that there was a certain amount of weakness of the heart, and that the head injury was not sufficient to cause death. A verdict was returned that death took place in the car, there being no evidence to show the cause.
