as follows :
That the name of the deceased was H.

und at the time of his death he was pile
inspector and had charge of pile inspec
tion for tbe O. E. & N. Co. on its 'piling

the main line of said company, and fell
therefrom, the cause of eucb fall being
and from the
evidence we are not able to find any
cause for such fall except unavoidable
iccidejit, and we therefore conclude tbat
be cause of the death of said deceased
Iras an unavoidable accident, and tbat
ho one is at fault or responsible for said
lleath. .. F. C. Sexton,
