Mrs. Harvey died Wednesday 28th September 1887, being found dead in a downstairs room at 3:30 am. Witnesses described her as being intoxicated the previous evening. Although bruised, this had not been the cause of death. George Taylor M. D. concluded that exhaustion due to lying in an unattended state, after the effect of the drink, had been the cause. She was 66 years old.
The Jury deliberated for 40 minutes and returned an open verdict.
