[Marmalady]

Can anyone work out what this cause of death is?

Dysentry?  although the end of the word in question does not seem to match.

The words “dysentria” and  “dysenteria” appear as cause of death in 19th century newspapers.  One of the species of the causative bacterium Shigella is Shigella dysenteriae.

My conclusion is that in this certificate the Latin term is being used rather than the Anglicised version.
