Hi, I was wondering if someone could help with this listed cause of death for my ancestor William Parkinson. This is from his death record in Massachusetts, USA in 1881. I am having dificulty understanding what is says, I cannot seam to find anything that fits.
Thank-you for any help

Looks to me like "Infla. (Inflammation?) Bowels"

Thank-you. I thought it was something "bowels" but I could not make out the first word.
