Mrs. Ross Scott, a niece, of Cran- brook-street, Bethnal Green, sadil her uncle had plenty of money, but neglected himself;
In his room the solicitor whom she had engaged had found £1,500 a cash. Her uncle also had house property and was probably worth several thousand pounds.
"He was an absolute miser," she added. "He would not give a penny away."
Mrs. Fowler, the landlady, said that Mr. Treeves would not allow anyone into his room where he kept his money.
Medical evidence showed that death was due to erysipelas, set up by an injury of unknown origin to the face. Treeves was in a dirty and neglected condition.
A verdict of Accidental Death was returned.
