"At the Bell Inn, Pershore, on Thursday last, an inquest was held on the body of William Roberts, farmer, of White Ladies Aston, who
burst a blood vessel the previous day, soon after getting out of his gig, in the Bell yard, and died almost immediately. Verdict: "Died from the visitation of
God, from the rupture of a blood vessel on the lungs.""
