>From Jackson's Oxford Journal, Saturday, June 21, 1856; Issue 5382. ABINGDON. FATAL FALL DOWN STAIRS. An inquest was held at Aston Tirrold, on Saturday last, before E. COWCHER , Esq., on the body of Anne BALL , aged 66, the wife of a laboring man residing there. It appeared that about a quarter of an hour after being in the house of a neighbour, a great noise, as of some one falling heavily, was heard in her cottage, and, as she was known to be alone, some neighbours opened the door, and went in, when they found the deceased in a state of insensibility, at the foot of the stairs. She was immediately got to bed, and a medical gentleman was sent for, but she scarcely rallied afterwards, and died on the following day, her skull having sustained a fracture in the fall, besides sustaining serious internal injuries. A verdict in accordance with the unfortunate circumstances was returned.
