Died
from Effects of a Fall
Delhi, 25 Oct. -- During a
Police Court trial which was being held in the Council chamber above
the Post Office today, the Magistrate ordered the constable to clear
the room.
Constable McNally of Simcoe,
in attempting to do so, pushed some of those at the top of the
stairway.
Mr. Henry Ryder, an aged and
respected farmer living close to the village, was standing part way
down the stairs, when he was pushed over by those above him.
He fell to the bottom of the
stairway, striking his head, and died shortly afterwards.
An inquest will be held.
