OK. I wondered about copying because you wrote a very long reply - which was very difficult to read - which must have taken you a long time if you were not simply reproducing someone else's work. This is not necessary - you get no extra credit from Answeree by so doing - so why bother, especially given that most of this says nothing at all that was relevant to the question?

It was claimed by others that he died due to a brain attack or stroke. He was having dinner with his sister-in-law during that time.

He did indeed die in the arms of his mistress and his death was concealed from the public. He had a stroke and he failed to regain consciousness.

The circumstances of Charles Dickens' death have long been the subject of speculation and rumor. The most popular theory is that Dickens died as the result of a stroke, brought on by overwork and stress. However, there are some who have suggested that Dickens may have been poisoned, possibly by his wife, or that he was murdered. It is true that Dickens was working on a novel at the time of his death, and that he may have been suffering from stress as a result of his work. However, there is no evidence to support the idea that he was anything other than a victim of natural causes.
