At the inquest opened subsequently, Dr. Crcoke gave evidence that the child was fully developed, but had never breathed. The coroner returned a verdict that the child, whose parents were unknown was a full time child, that it had been born alive but had never breathed, and there was no evidence to show why it had not breathed.
