INQUEST AT DARGAVILLE
(United Press Association) DARGAVILLE. 20th June. A verdict that death was due to heart failure was returned by the Coroner at an inquest yesterday into the death of Wilfred Headly Keene, whose body was found on the highway near Omana with a loaded shotgun nearby. A Press Association message received on Friday stated that it seemed that the deceased while driving his delivery van along the road noticed a bird and got out and fired two shots, and that he was in the act of reloading the gun when he expired, presumably from heart failure.
