Charles Morrow arrived at the House of Industry and Refuge February 17 1870, at 70 years old, he lived in the Poorhouse for 5 days, and then died February 17 1870 in the house from Delerium Tremens, a severe form of alcohol withdrawal.
As written by Jaffray “Died from immediate effects of alcohol poisoning at his ripe age of 70. Four day of heavy engagement with the maddening devils springing form the fevered brain – a stomach, refusing longer to be made a slave, even the acquaintance, whiskey, being denied accommodation, and Morrow quietly fell into his last long sleep.”
