It was stated recently at an inquest at Ormskirk that although both the front and back wheels of a waggon, weighing over two tone, had passed over the chest of a railway carter named Thomas, Richard Alty, aged 48 years, he picked himself up and walked several yards to recover his cap. He then collapsed, and died in- "stantly before he could be taken to hospital.
