The inquest was on William Wright, of Hillside, Donisthorpe, who died in the early hours of Sunday morning. … discussion … John Wright, a colliery deputy, of Hillside, Donisthorpe, the dead man’s son, said his father was a retired miner …

SEEMED RESTLESS … Answering the Coroner, Mr. Wright said that some time ago he found his father dripping wet beside a water tank and when questioned about it he told him that he had slipped in. James Riley said that he was in the same ward as Wright on the second floor of the Infirmary. Wright’s bed was in a corner near a window.

During the night he heard a tapping on the window by his bed and looking up saw a naked foot on the window feeling about for a foothold. The man broke the window and fell back. He heard him strike a form on the ground. … (open verdict) …
