Whereas I have been informed this 25th day of Dec. A.D. 1884 that A.L. Beardons death was caused by unlawful means. I have summoned a jury and proceeded to inquire the death of said A.L. Beardon.
The Jury being duly sworn proceeded to view the remains and then examined the witnesses where statements are hereunto attached. After the examination of the witnesses the jury retired for deliberation and reviewed the verdict also attached. Dr. M.A. Lyle sworn statement is also attached. A warrant was issued by me and given to Deputy Sheriff JH Friedlander to serve on S. White alias Bud White.
I hereby certify that the above is a true record of the inquisition held by me.
