Gastonia, Feb. 24—Mack Lippard, taxi driver, was held without bond for further investigation following the coroner’s inquest into the death of Mamie Turner Carrigan, who died early this morning.
Testimony introduced at the inquest tended to show that the young woman drank last night some liquor alleged to have been furnished by Lippard and it is assumed that this was the cause of death since another woman also drank of the liquor became violently ill almost immediately thereafter.
Solicitor Carpenter tonight intimated that he may order an autopsy to determine the cause of death.
