Peter Peters was the station master at the London and North West Railway Station at Wigan until 9th September 1898. The Wigan Observer dated 3 December 1898 carried a report following the inquest into his death in which it states that Peter Peters was dismissed from his employment as he failed to report for duty when the Royal train stopped at Wigan for a few minutes in the early morning. It was a matter of extreme sorrow that the efforts of his family and friends failed in his reinstatement and he became very depressed and took his own life on the evening of 1st December 1898. The stated cause of death on the death certificate is: "Suicide by cutting his throat with a razor while temporarily insane". A copy of their marriage certificate was applied for and is dated 9th December 1898.
