ACCIDENTAL DEATH.
(Per United' Press Association.) GISBORNE, March 22. A verdict of ."Accidental death, no blame being attachable to anyone," was returned in regard to the death of Mr Andrew Sharpe, traveller for the Phoenix Biscuit and Confectionery Company. The evidence showed that lie was an abstainer from liquor; that the horse got beyond his control as soon as he had pot into the saddle at Bruce's store, Waiohika; that in overtaking a buggy it swerved, dislodging the rider, who apparently struck * the buggy wheel as he fell.
