Number 107 of 1907. I understand the details can be viewed at the PRO or a copy can be ordered through Macbeth Genealogical Services in Hampton; no doubt for a fee. As there were close to 1400 inquests in 1907 I'm not surprised that there were 3 listed on one page as that is less than the daily average!

He died in Bairnsdale in 1907, so which newspapers served the area then? I hope that such Inquiries were reported in the news. I will hopefully get into the National Library in about 3 weeks or so, but they seem to have a number of different papers serving East Gippsland at different times and they overlap in years. So a little advice/recommendations would help. He was a jockey and my aunt had told me that he died in a horse riding accident. As the cause of death is listed as "Concussion of the brain" I am inclined to think that it may be the case, but a newspaper report would help. Interestingly of the 5 entries on the page2 of them have Magisterial Inquiries and one has a Magisterial order for burial Tia in Canberra Search 1000's of available singles in your area at the new Yahoo!7 Dating.
