The police received information yesterday morning that Mr R. K. Chamberlain, of Warrengate, had died suddenly during the previous night. It appeared that the deceased had suffered for some considerable time from throat affection, and up to a year ago had been under the treatment of Drs. Connolly and Saunders. They, however, were not of the opinion that his complaint was serious. On Thursday Mr Chamberlain was apparently in his usual health, but on retiring for the night complained of a choking sensation. Mrs Chamberlain went to a neighbour's house and asked for some brandy, but before it could be brought Mr Chamberlain expired. The deceased was a comparatively young man, being only 45 years of age.
