  MissScarlett: Bicester Herald, June 29th 1906, p.6:

<In the case of Arthur Henry Augustus Currie, a barrister, and son of Colonel Currie, of Risley, Worcestershire, who died from cocaine poisoning, a Holborn jury returned a verdict of "Death by misadventure." The young man four or five years ago was run over by a hansom cab, and since then his health had been impaired.

He had recently been living in London with a medical man, but went away, pawned his bicycle, bought cocaine, and engaged a room at Noon's Hotel, Holborn, where he was found dead. He had taken seventy-two grains, where two-thirds of a grain, said the doctor, had killed a person. When confined at Camberwell House early in the year, he took 100 grains of bromide of potassium instead of five, and once drank a bottle of chlorodyne and a bottle of Seigel's Syrup.>
