THE CORONOR'S JURY "
Holds no on Responsible for the
Death of Joseph Pajsar by
Caving Walls.
Burled In Oak Hill Cemetery at 2
O'clock This Afternoon.
The man who was killed yesterday by
the falling of the east wall of the Pres
byterian church was earned Joseph Paj
sar (prouounced Pazar), instead of Peter
Mattous, as riven in the Hkiiald last
night. Pajsar lived with his nephew,
Andrew Matnus, near the shops. He
had three children living and grown
one son lives in the old country, another
in Wisconsin and a daughter at Cedar
Rapids, Iowa, but they were poor am'
could not como to the father's funeral
Ha was about sixty years.
The following parties were summoned
to the coronor's inquest.
Witnesses: Mr. Yanarnaman, J. Fitz
gerald, J. E. Burdiek, Laurence Trillity,
and Dr. W. H. Schildknccht. Jurors:
H. C. Grimes, M. B. Murphy, W. W,
Hull, W. D. Jones, H. J. Streight, and
Jesse L. Root.
The testimony of the witnesses showed
that Architect Voss had instructed that
about three feet of dirt bo left around
the bape of the walls, that no excavating
had been done under the walls of the
building and that it was thought to be
perfectly safe there having been no cracks
in the foundation or dirt. Dr. Schild
kntcht's testimony was as follows: "The
cauite of this nan's death was concussion
of the brain; there were wera probably
sonr.e internal injuries. The shock must
have paralyzed him at once. I was one
of tlia first men there,, helped to take him
out, he never spoke after we got to him;
was in front of my oflicc across the road
when the walls fell the east wall fell.
The man was lying among the debris, his
head was nut covered; a big stone lay
across his feet as well as some bricks; he
was probably hit on the head by a brick.
There were no bones broken that I could
discover."
THE VERDICT.
The verdict of the coronor's jury was
as follows: "State of Nebraska, Cass
county, ss. At an inquest held in Platts
mouth, in Cass county, on the 14th day
of May, A. D., 18897 before me, Henry
Boeck, coroner of said Cass county, upon
the body of Joseph Pajsar, lying dead
by the jurors whose names are hereto
subscribed, said jurors upon their oath
lo say that the said Pajsar came to his
death from concussion of the brain,
caused by some heavy substance striking
aaid Pajsar on the head, caused by the
falling of the old Presbyterian church;
and that said falling was an accident for
which we find no one to blame. In testi-
nony whereof the stid jurors have here
unto Sft their hands the day aforesaid."
