Northampton Mercury: Saturday 30th June 1888

Aspley Guise: Inquest: On Tuesday evening inquest was held at the Bell Hotel Mr. F. F. Tanqueray, coroner for the Honor of Ampthill, the body of Alma Corkett, the infant child of James and Mary Corkett. The child was only seven weeks old; had been unwell a few days, but no medical man had been consulted. Becoming worse, the mother carried it to Woburn, and on uncovering the body at the surgery found it dead. The mother said the child was seven weeks old, and very delicate; it had a cough from its birth. On Friday evening it became worse, and on Saturday morning she carried it in her arms to Woburn, carefully wrapped a shawl. When she reached the surgery, it was dead, and she carried it back home. The symptoms of Friday night were a helpless drowsiness and throwing up of the feet. All the medicine she gave was some cough stuff obtained from Mrs. Perry, and which she showed the doctor. When she neared Birchmoor she felt the child make a slight struggle. Pincent Smith (Veasey and Lucas), surgeon, stated that the child was brought to their surgery on Saturday last. He had made a postmortem examination and concluded that the cause of death was bronchitis. The child was well nourished, and the body was perfectly natural in its appearance. A verdict of death from bronchitis was returned.
