INJURIES.
The neighbourhood of liast.street was on Wednesday
morning thrown into a state of great alarm, consequent
on the imminz of volumes of ke from the premising
of Mr. W. Morey, botcher. It was thought by those
at a distance who saw the smoke that the house was
on fire, hut such WAS not the case, :ilthough a shocking
accident had lwfallen Mrs. Morey, aged about 6:5
years. It was ;de la eight o'clock in the miming, mad
Mrs. Morey, with her little granddaughter of some
sir or five years of age, was in the room behind the
shop. She had occasion to use a light, for what
purpose it is not known, but the little girl says
that in passing from one mom to another her grand-
mother's print dress beinme sited by AMA 111WAS4 or
other, and of course the poor woman became greatly
alarmed, and in her fright ran into the shop and from
their into the peonage adjoining. Ifer cries and those
of the little girl speedily drew many neighbours and
others to the spot, amongst whom was George Bugler,
a young man employed by Mr. Morey, and he
succeeded in extinguishing the flames, in doing which
he himself was burnt in one of his band& Poor Mrs
Morey received prompt attention, and it was found
she was severely burnt from the waist downwards.
Dr. Denzil,* was immediately sent for, and on his
arrival olid all that could be done to alleviate the
sufferings of the unfortunate woman. Grave doubts
are felt as to Mrs. Morey's recovery; she has been
poorly I* eeoc weeks, and it is feared the shock to
the system, combined with the hurts received. will he
more than she will be able to bear. Great sympathy
Is felt In. the sufferer, whos with her husband, are
much respected by the inhabitants f the town.
Mn.. Morey imaged a very restless night, and on
Thursday morning it was said mho was much worse
