Help with Cause of Death - Complete
« on: Sunday 03 March 13 14:14 GMT (UK) »
Hi everyone,

Looking for some help deciphering the "cause of death" on my Great, Great Grandfather's death certificate.  I understand a few words like "Chronic" and "Phthisis", but can read it all.

Any help would be much appreciated.
