The deceased died suddenly this morning, and it appearing from the evidence of Mr. Clancy, Apothecary, William-street, that no other then natural causes, operated in producing the event - the Jury returned a verdict in conformity with the medical statement. An unpleasant controversy occurred in the course of the inquiry, that led to the imposition of a fine of forty shillings, and its reception, on one of the Jurors, who refused to sign the issue. The controversy, curiously enough, arose from castor oil.
