The deceased on the evening previous to the inquest, was sitting on a chair in conversation with the family and a neighbour or two, when she suddenly sighed and fell down on the floor, and on being removed to the door life was found to be extinct. She had not before been subject to any complaints of any desription, and was in the enjoyment of her usual good health. Verdict -- Died by the Visitation of God.
