Default Amble man accidental death Blyth Harbour

To give an update - if anyone is interested. Today received a copy death certificate for Wm N Young and cause of death is " heart failure following on pneumonia caused by immersion in the river Blyth due to accidental fall" 15 June 1918.

I would imagine falling into Blyth harbour was not a pleasant experience in those days and it certainly did for him!
I would really like to know the circumstances surrounding the event though
