E HOPPER (CORONER) HELD AN INQUEST AT THE HARE AND HOUNDS, HOLLY LANE, PERRY BARR ON SATURDAY RELATIVE TO THE DEATH OF ELIZABETH RICHARDS (60) OF 22 HAWKES LANE, WEST BROMWICH WHO WAS FOUND DEAD IN A WATERCRESS STREAM ON THE WARREN FARM, HOLLY LANE ON THURSDAY. DECEASED WAS THE WIFE OF THE WEST BROMWICH SANITARY INSPECTOR AND WAS LAST SEEN ALIVE BY HER FRIENDS ON WEDNESDAY MORNING WHEN SHE LEFT HOME AT 10.15 WITH THE INTENTION OF GOING TO VISIT HER DAUGHTER AT HILL TOP. NOTHING FURTHER WAS SEEN OR HEARD OF HER UNTIL NINE 0’CLOCK THE SAME NIGHT, WHEN SHE WAS MET BY A WOMAN NAMED RHODES IN THE HOLLY LANE, WHICH IS ABOUT FIVE OR SIX MILES FROM WET BROMWICH. DECEASED WAS JUST CLAMBERING OUT OF A DITCH CLOSE TO MRS RHODES’ HOUSE AND SAID SHE WAS GOING TO HILL TOP. THREE HOURS LATER A MAN NAMED PARKER FOUND DECEASED IN ANOTHER DITCH FURTHER ALONG THE LANE. HE HELPED HER TO GET OUT, AND AT FIRST THOUGHT SHE WAS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRINK, BUT AFTERWARDS DISCOVERED THAT SHE WAS PERFECTLY SOBER. WHEN ASKED WHAT BROUGHT HER THERE, DECEASED REPLIED FIRST THAT SHE WAS GOING TO HILL TOP, BUT AFTERWARDS SAID SHE HAD COME FROM THAT PLACE AND SUBSEQUENTLY SHE MADE SEVERAL RAMBLING STATEMENTS. SHE DID NOT SAY WHO SHE WAS AND AS PARKES, COULD GET NOTHING CLEAR FROM HER HE LEFT HER THERE. HE STARTED HOME, BUT CHANGED HIS MIND AND TURNED BACK TO THE PLACE WHERE HE LEFT HER, BUT WITHOUT FINDING ANY TRACE OF HER. A FARM BAILIFF NAMED WELLS DEPOSED TO FINDING DECEASED IN THE WATERCRESS STREAM ON THURSDAY MORNING. SHE WOULD HAVE TO WALK ALONG A PRIVATE PATH TO GET THERE, AND POLICE-CONSTABLE MILLER, WHO WAS FETCHED BY WELLS, SAID THAT WHEN HE ARRIVED HE FOUND DECEASED LYING UPON HER FACE IN ABOUT THREE INCHES OF WATER, WITH HER HANDS FIRMLY STUCK IN THE MUD, OUT OF WHICH HE HAD SOME DIFFICULTY IN GETTER HER. THERE WERE FOOTMARKS AROUND THE SOP, AS THOUGH DECEASED HAD TRIED TO RETRACE HER STEPS. FROM THE EVIDENCE OF A SON OF DECEASED, IT APPEARED THAT SHE WAS A WOMAN OF EXTREMELY TEMPERATE HABITS. THE NIGHT IN QUESTION WAS VERY DARK, AND NO REASON COULD BE ASSIGNED FOR HER BEING IN THAT LOCALITY, WHICH IS QUITE OUT OF THE WAY, AS SHE HAD NO FRIENDS OR RELATIVES ANYWHERE CLOSE AT HAND. AT THE TIME OF LEAVING HOME, SHE HAD NO MONEY OR VALUABLES UPON HER, AND WHEN FOUND THERE WAS NO SIGN OF HAVING MET WITH FOUL PLAY. THE CORONER AND SEVERAL OF THE JURY EXPRESSED SURPRISE THAT NOTHING WAS SEEN OR HEARD OF THE DECEASED UNTIL NIGHT, AND THAT SHE SHOULD HAVE WANDERED INTO THE DISTRICT. A VERDICT OF “FOUND DEAD” WAS RETURNED
