Mr. Christie received notice on Saturday, that his presence was required near Enniskillen, to hold an inquest on the body of Mr. D. Knapp, who had died suddenly, on the evening previous, at the residence of his son, Mr. Charles Knapp.   A Jury was empanelled, composed of Messrs. A. Virtue, foreman; Thomas Swain, Robert Washington, Robert Kennedy, A. Knox, R. Pye, S. Parr, W. Buckler, H. H. Stewart, C. Stewart, C. Williams, and W. S. Cowle.   Several witnesses were examined and on the evidence adduced, the Jury returned a verdict, “that the deceased died from apoplexy, caused principally by learning of the sudden death of his son Daniel, in Uxbridge.”   Mrs. Knapp, wife of the deceased, testified as follows: “On the night of the 26th, my late husband and self were at our son Charles’ House.  Before leaving our house, in Hampton, we received a telegram, that our son Daniel had died at Uxbridge.  The Intelligence affected the deceased so much, that he exclaimed, “Oh, mother, this will shorten my days.”  In the evening, I asked him to take some tea, after persuasion, he took a little.  This was somewhere about 8 o’clock, p.m.  He then went into a bedroom adjoining the dining room.  About five minutes after, I went in, and he was a little easier, and immediately fell from the floor, striking his head on a chest in the room.  I shouted.  Then my son and his wife, came and lifted him on to the bed.  He gave one gasp, and expired.  We did not send for a doctor, as he was dead.  He was in his seventy-fifth year.  The deceased has complained of late of being frail, but was always healthy, so as to go about.  I believe that the telegram received, announcing the death of his son, had, in a great measure, to do with his death.”   Dr. McLaughlin testified that he had “made a careful examination of deceased, and was of opinion that death was caused by apoplexy, induced by degeneration of the blood vessels, and strong mental emotion.”  The Bowmanville Marchant, Apr.2, 1875.
