HC Deb 12 March 1896 vol 38 c772
MR. D. CRILLY (Mayo, N.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if an official Inquiry has been held into the case of the death of a man named Mahony, of 112, Brandon Street, Walworth, where the deceased was attended, as it is alleged, by an unqualified medical practitioner, and where the order for burial was granted by Coroner Wyatt, of Surrey; and, if the Home Office has come to any decision as to the necessity for holding an Inquiry?

SIR MATTHEW WHITE RIDLEY

An Inquiry into the case was made by the coroner, who was satisfied, as a result, that death was due to natural causes and that no inquest was necessary. I have obtained a full Report on the case and can discover no grounds for any action on my part.
