Doherty's Death
Little is known regarding Doherty’s activities immediately before his death. He had ceased trading as a printer and bookseller in 1842 and appears to have led a quiet life until his death on 14 April 1854. The coroner reported Doherty’s death to have been a result of ‘disease of the heart, which was evidently of long duration from the great enlargement of the heart’.
