The next morning nn sched- ule she woke her husband at 8 o'clock and was reaching into the bedside crib for the baby. only to faint and die immedi- ately. Police. fire and ambul- ance DPI‘SOHHOI arrived speedily. And your death could mystify the medical authorities because it would look like you could have been poisoned by arsenic or improper medication. This was the picture that emerged on Tuesday night of last week in Richmond Hill Council Chambers as Dr. Jack Saunders of King City conâ€" ducted an inquest into the mysterious sudden September 12 death of a young housewife from the Richvale area of Rich- mond Hill. The coroner's jury found death was due to natural causes. namely heart fail- ure, possibly due to myo- carditis. Mrs. Margaret Rose Butler. 34, a tele- phone repairer. died at about 8:15 am September 12 at her home. at. 149 May Avenue. Over the years she had enjoyed quite good health. havan complained mainly of anxiety and tired- ness. Besides her job she was a housekeeper with a 2‘2-_\'ear-old child. In mid-August she was treated for a mild influenza by her family dnctm; September 11 was a Saturday and after put- ting in a full week of factory work she did a full Saturday's housework with the help of her husband and other members of the household. When you're “moonlighting” and you don't take a good rest after having a "cold" or "flu". you're doing just about every- thing you can to lose your life through a relatively rare. heart disease. It can come on without warning or noticeable s-ymtoms and kills in about a minute. 10 THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario, Thursday, Feb. 10, 1972 335 YONGE ST.

INQUEST What} C oo/(ing At Ross Doan P But her death could only have ' been avoided if she had been in ; a modern heart unit with . trained medical personnel at her -beside when she was stricken. >‘There wouldn't even have been .‘time to call in a doctor if she ,‘u’ere in hospital, the inquest sxcourt was told. Before the tiny button- sized inflamation swelling ‘ on her heart was found by l the pathologist trying to find the cause of death, ‘ there had been tests for ar- senic and other drugs at the Ontario Centre for For- ensic Sciences. No arsenic was found. , Medical testimony showed lshe had slight amounts of the ‘ltranquilizer Valium and an as pii‘in type drug in her system "when she died. But these wouldn't have caused her death.1 Her stomach contained onlyl' mucus and none of the globules of white substance that would have been present if she were Ipoisoned, the pathologist testifi tied. A suspicious circumstances was the fact that the deceased had refilled her tranquilizer prescription several times with- out using up the first supply. She therefore had an unusual and very large amount of Val- ium in the house. The medical experts testifying said this was just aparently one of those un- explainable things. The court was lold the type of heart inflammation involved was most often caused by a normal cold or bowel virus ihat is transmitted in much the same manner as polio \‘irus. Dr. Leon Koyle of Wil- lowdale. a specialist in in- ternal medicine (who did a research study at one time on the disease that killed Mrs. Butler) said anybody moonlighting â€"- having a job and keeping house â€" is more likely to be suscentible to this type PHONE 889-5435 727-9453 GHEV= QLS “Moonlighting”, Cammon Cold, Lack Of Rest Can Kill You The inquest jury took only a few minutes to bring in its verâ€" dict. The jury from Richmond Hill included foreman Brian Eggleston of 20 Bryson Drive, Joanne Dunne of 441 Elmwood Avenue, Edward Daniels of 411 ler‘s death could have been caused by certain medica- tions, but not those found in her system. He said where this heart' disease is discovered in time. and treated. it can recur as long as 11 years later and no medi- cation can get it out of the heart tissue. It kills by causing they heartbeat to go wild by affect-1 ing the heart‘s timing system. The inquest was told the But- ler‘s had a good marriage with; no threats. serious fights or; physical violence. Mrs. Butler‘s parents and an 18â€"year-old niece resided with the couple and ran in when she was: stricken. The Butlers were mar» ried in 1965. 1 ‘York Central The witnesses included the following: Dr. Charles Birkett. emergency duty physician at Hospital when Mrs. Butler was brought in; Dr. Donald Guthrie of Kleinburg, pathologist; Dr. Jerry Niren- berski of 423 Markham Road, Richmond Hill. the family phy- sician; Dr. Koyl; James Butler. 29, of 149 May Avenue, husband [of the deceased; Anthony Tom- asone of 149 May Avenue. father of the deceased: Miss Barbara Batten of 149 May Avenue. niece of the deceased: and the investigation officer YRP Constable Brian Cradock.

Materials have increased more than 25% over the last 6 years and still going up. What if fire or other hazards made it necessary to repair or replace your home? Would your present insurance cover the expense? One of the independent insurance agents in your neighbourhood can help you to answer that question. If more insurance is needed, ask him about a low-cost, Economical package. And for complete peace. of mind, add Economical’s Inflation Guard endorsement to the policy. It automatically increases protection dollars in pace with rising replacement costs. Richmond Hill â€"- Barrow Insurance Services Ltd. 884-1551 Willowdale â€" Neil G.
