He contracted tubercular meningitis while in prison.

And then of course there's tubercular meningitis which is caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria, and finally parasitic causes of meningitis like P. falciparum which is the main cause of malaria.

Buddy Holly (killed in a plane crash), Amedeo Modigliani (dead of tubercular meningitis at 35), Wilfred Owen (slain in action a week before the armistice in 1918): such premature and cruel exits are tragic.

巴迪·霍利(在一次飞机失事中丧生)、阿梅迪奥·莫迪利亚尼(35岁时死于结节性脑膜炎)、威尔弗雷德·欧文(1918年停战前一周在行动中被杀)：这种过早且残酷的离世是一种悲剧。
