SUDDEN DEATH.—W. Brunner, Esq., Coroner, held an inquest at the house of William Matthews, a gardener, living in Cardigan-street, Jericho, on Tuesday, touching the death of Hannah Matthews, 53 years of age, wife of the said William Matthews. On Monday morning she rose, and her husband saw she was vomiting blood. He got her some water to drink, but in a few minutes she died. As she had been suffering from illness for some time, the Jury returned a verdict of "Died from natural causes."
