The afternoon of Friday, Mr. Roberts conducted an inquest into the cause of the death of Mr. Joseph Atherton, 27 years old, Labourer who resided at Maesdu Crossing.
He was found later the previous day lying by the side of the railway at Llandudno Junction with his left arm broken away from his body.
It looked as if the deceased was knocked down by a wheeled vehicle which ran over him.
He was taken away alive to the hospital but died straight away.
A verdict of accidental death was passed as the deceased had only himself to blame
