==Death==
''(From the Murrurundi Times of Saturday.)''<br>
His Worship Dr. W. H. Wood held an inquiry at Yarraman, on Monday, touching the death of a man named Edward Oldfield, in the employ of Messrs. Hodges and Rowland, who had died on the previous day. About three weeks since the deceased met with an accident by cutting his foot with an adze. The wound was attended to, and appeared to have healed up, and the deceased resumed his occupation as a shepherd. The healing, however, seems to have but temporary, as the sore again broke out, and most excessive suppuration look place, which tended to weaken his already debilitated constitution so much that he eventually sank. When his illness assumed something serious, a messenger was sent to Murrurundi to his employers, and Mr. Rowland, without delay, humanely dispatched Dr. Wood to attend the man, but he died before he arrived. The medical gentleman attributes death to fatty degeneration of the heart and other chronic diseases accelerated by the effects of the wound referred to.
