I. SUNSTROKE WHILEI BATHING.
SUNSTROKE WHILE I BATHING. SOLDIER SUCCUMBS AT RHOS-ON SEA. I MILITARY ORDERS IGNORED. I A bathing fatality took place off Rhos-on-Sea Pier, on Whit-Monday, the victim being Gwilym Thomas, a private in "B" Company of the 17th (Glamorgan Bantams) Battalion, Welii Regiment, and a native of Tylorstown, Glamorganshire. It appears that Thomas, who was forty years of age, dived off the pier and was soon observed to be in difficulties. Later, the body was taken out of the water, but artificial respiration proved unavailing. The circumstances surrounding his death were inquired into by the Coroner for tlitodivision (Mr Robert Davies), in the County Buildings, Colwyn Bay, on Tuesday evening. Wm. John Jones, regimental quartermaster- sergeant of the 17th Battalion of the Welsh Regi- ment., identified the body as that of Private GwiJym Thomas, of B" Company, 17th Bat- talion, whose previous address was 1, Gwernllwyn- terrace, Tylorstown, Rhondda Valley. Until he enlisted deceased was a miner. Witness had known him for 25 years. Deceased gave the age of 37 on enlistment. THE PIERMASTER'S ADVICE. I Wm. Jones, Wood View, Rhos-on-Sea, pier- master, said he saw Thomas about three o'clock on the landing-stage at the sea end of the pier. He was partly undressed. Witness told him to go to the dressing-room, and he proceeded there. Witness followed him and advised him not to try and swim ashore. There' was twelve feet of water by the stage, and it then ran shallow to the sand. Tho distance he would have to swim to the shore was about 200 yards. Witness thought deceased was "a little in drink." He said," I'm all right; I'm an old sailor, and I'm not born to be drowned." He was apparently a strong swimmer. By a Juror: Witness had no power to prevent anyone going in off the pier. There was no sentry at the end of the pier. Private Thos. Williams, E" Company, 17th Battalion, Welsh Regiment, said he was bathing at Rhos about three p.m., when he saw deceased getting off the pier into the water. He swam to- wards witness, who was about 50 yards from the water's edge. Witness swam out for about thirty yards to meet him, because deceased was float- ing on the water. His face was in the water, and witness brought him to the shore swimming on his back with deceased's head on his ohest. He then handed deceased over to his two but- ties." Earlier in the afternoon witness had seen deceased on tho sands, and told him to go back as he had "had some- beer." Witness had not seen him in that state, before. By Captain Robertton: Deceased had not had much beer, but he was stumbling. Witness' company had received orders from the Company Commander I NOT TO BATHE AFTER 8 a.m. I Deceased told him he had a hot dinner. Private Joseph Henry Cooper, D" Company, 17th Battalion, said he was bathing near Rhos Pier, on the previous afternoon with three others, including Thomas. Witness took charge of de- ceased from Williams, and with the assistance of Hague and Laurence, he got him to the shore. He was then placed in charge of Lieut. Lewis. Dr. Anth-jny John Capper Magian, 1, St. Peter's-square, Manchester, corps surgeon to St. John Ambulance Brigade, and surgeon to the Manchester special police, said he was called to the beach on the previous afternoon to see the deceased. He appeared to ba dead. Witness tried to restore hfe by four different methods. He also injected strychnine and digitalis in tho attempt to restore the action of the heart. He sent for hot blankets, hot water bottles, and brandy, and Lieut. Roberts helped in artificial respiration for twenty minutes. Witness could not detect the slightest movement of the heart. Deceased's tongue was thickly coated with fur through the disordered state of the stomach. There was no smell of alcohol in the mouth; the pupils of the eyes were widely dilated and fixed —not responding to light- The body was clean and well-no irished, and there were no marks of violence, but there were numerous tattoo marks. Witness was of opinion that death had taken r place about 3.5. Witness added: "I think de- I ceased I DIED BEFORE HE WAS DROWNED. J This is possibly a case of sunstroke or heat- stroke, acting in conjunction with a disordered stomach, and the shock of plunging into cold water may have caused death. I have had con- siderable experience of sunstroke in various parts of the world, and the symptoms which I usually find I found here. A man sdffers from the ex- treme heat, feels light-headed and ill, and has a disordered stomach. Not unnaturally, he takes a little drink, with the result that things become worse. To the outside eyes it is a case of drunkenness but in this case I should like to say that the drink he had had riothing to do with his death. The heat which we have had during the past few days would be sufficient to cause the condition found in deceased." The Coroner, in summing-up, referred to the PRA VE ACTION OF THE TWO YOUTHS who immediately went to Thomas' assistance. The jury, after a short deliberation, returned a. verdict based upon the medical evidence. The Foreman said the jury were convinced that there was no negligence on the part of the offi- cers of the battalion, but at the same time he hoped that such a case would not occur again. In Colwyn Bay they rather prided themselves upon their safe bathing ground, and cases such as that told against them. He understood that the deceased had a wife and family, and, that being so, the jury desired to express their deep sympathy with them. The jury also wished to thank the doctor for the clear manner in which he had given his evidence. Further, they would like to place on record the bravery of the two privates who went to deceased's assistance. R.Q.M.S. Jones said the whole battalion en- dorsed the foieman's remarks. He added that the battalion and the inhabitants of Rhos were contributing to a subscription list for the benefit of the widow, who was left in very straightened circumstances. The jury made a collection on behalf of the fund, which realised 12s 6d.'

They were met at Mcnai Bridge Station by eight mem- bers of the Bangor Men's Detachment of the Red Cross Society, who were under the charge of tho commandant. Mr J. Gayton, and were con. veyed to Bodlonaeb in motor cars. Of the twenty. three men, sixteen are Australians, wounded, some of them very badly, in the Dardanelles One of the patients is a Russian, a native of War- saw, who was engaged with the Australians in the Dardanelles. According to one of the men he had landed only half-an-hour before he was rendered liors de combat with a bullet in his back. On Wednesday, Mrs Lloyd George paid a visit to the Home, and was introduced to the patients by Miss Parry, the matron. At the time the patients were at tea, and they greeted Mrs Lloyd George with rousing cheers. Hubsequently, Mrs Lloyd George made an inspection of the building, Lloyd George made itn in, and expressed the opinion that it was one of the best Convalescent Homes she had seen, and she promised to send a few gifts for the patients. She was particularly interested in the latest ar- rivals from the Dardanelles, a fine lot of men, and had a cheery word for each of them. Last night, a concert was held at the Home, Miss Cameron, Beaumaris, being the vocalist. A gift of 300 cig&rettea. given by customers at the snop of Mr johit Jones, hairdresser, Menai Bridge, has been received for the patients. The matron wilt welcome gifts of walking- sticks, wheeled or bath chairs, and particularly crutches, for the use of the patients.
