Nottingham Journal, 7 September 1927. Blood Transfusion Fails. Carlton Man’s Death from Splinter. How a splinter caused a man’s death was related at the inquest in Nottingham yesterday on George P Duckering (21), of The Laurels, Sain’s-avenue, Carlton, who died in the General Hospital on Sunday from septicaemia.
On 14 August, said Arthur Gooding, of 7 Arthur-crescent, Carlton-hill, Duckering complained of slight pain in his index finger of the right hand. There wasa black spot on the knuckle and a red streak down the indise of the finger. Witness took him to a doctor who lanced the finger which was subsequently poulticed. The trouble became gradullay worse, and Dcukering was admitted to hospital on 25 August.
He told witness that a splinterentered the finger, but he thought he had got it out.
Medical evidence showed that there was blood-poisoning, which probably originated in the finger.
The man’s father, brother and uncle all gave blood for transfusion, but all efforst failed.
“Death from septicaemia caused by a splinter” was the verdict.
