Daniel Hayes
Coroner's Inquest Report.
State of Indiana,
Porter County.
BE IT REMEMBERED, That on the 3d day of April, 1876, information was given to me that the dead body of a man was found upon the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railway track near the depot at Valparaiso, in said county and state, supposed to have come to his death by casualty, and I thereupon caused a jury to be summoned, sworn, and charged to ascertain, so far as possible, the cause and circumstances of said death. Witnesses, accordingly, were called and sworn, and testimony taken and reduced to writing, signed by both said jury and myself, and filed in the Clerk's office of said county, whereupon said jury made their verdict that the said "decedent came to his death by accident in being run over by an engine on the P., F. W. & C. R. W. company." Said decedent's name was Daniel Hayes, his residence a few miles north of Valparaiso. No valuables were found about his person, and his body was delivered to his uncle, Michael Sullivan, a resident of Valparaiso, for burial.
W. C. PARAMORE,
Coroner of Porter County.
