Biographical Notes:

"The death of Eric Anthony Bulman, a flight rigger, aged 29, of Wigram, was investigated. A verdict was returned that he committed suicide at Scarborough between June 9 and 18 by shooting himself in the head with a shotgun. Lawrence Edmund Crossen, a corporal fitter, in evidence, said that Bulman gave no indication of intention to commit suicide. He was of a quiet disposition. He was on sick leave with a broken wrist at the time."
