MRS. GRAY’S DEATH ACCIDENTAL

Coroner Hastings has announced his findings of the inquisition relative to the death of Mrs. Mary E. Gray, who was struck by an automobile at Madison Avenue and West Lawrence Street in Albany on the evening of Nov. 30. The automobile was operated by John S. Loucks Jr. Mrs. Gray died at the Albany hospital on Dec. 5. The coroner finds that Mrs. Gray died as a result of pulmonary oedema and a fracture at the base of the skull, and from the evidence of Mr. Loucks and Rensselaer Taylor, who occupied the automobile at the time the woman was struck, and Robert W. Mead, George E. Merigold and Henry McKinstry, who arrived later, the coroner is of the opinion that Mr. Loucks exercised all the power at this command to avoid striking Mrs. Gray, and that her death was “purely accidental.”

Huntington is now located at Stitts’ hotel and will be glad to be interviewed by any of our citizens.
