Ellen Agnes Armstrong died from an illegal operation.

A woman was tried for her murder but no evidence was offered and she was acquitted. When questioned by the police she had said 'Yes, I have nothing to say only that I do not know the person' although she subsequently said that she did remember a woman named Armstrong of Stirchley coming to see her at her home. The woman had lived on Avondale Road in Sparkhill.
