KILLED ON THE RAILWAY LINE.
The City Coroner, Dr. Youl, held an inquest
at the morgue yesterday concerning the death of a
man name unknown who was found dead on the
Richmond railway line on last Wednesday night.
The evidence indicated that the deceased wil-
fully walked on to the line, was run over, and so
badly lacerated that he subsequently died in the
Melbourne Hospital from the injuries sustained.
A letter found on the deceased showed
he had been an inmate of the Melbourne
Gaol, and the jury returned a verdict of
suicide.
