He dies young, looking up the Inquest unusually for my researches he's there. I now see this is as per your previous thread re the horrible railway accident.

I would have thought such a prominent if not newsworthy death would result in a proper Burial as you clearly believe, perhaos even funded by the Railway Company in some way, although I see the Inquest doesnt appear to imply liability.

Was the S&W Rwy ever found liable at all ?.
