Coroner Finds Death of American Due to Ignorance on Traffic.

LONDON, Nov. 24.—Ignorance of the English rules of the road, whereby the traffic passes to the left, caused the death of an American nun, Sister Euphrasia, from Convent of St. Mary, Inwood, Ind., at Finchley, Middlesex, on Nov. 17, according to the verdict of the Marylebone coroner, just announced.

Sister Euphrasia, whose name is said to have been Catherine Baker, was at the head of a party of nuns touring Europe. Upon alighting from a tramcar she was knocked down by another approaching from the opposite direction, and died from her injuries.
