the death of Matilda Church, aged two
mosther'e:rsedgatgghter of a shoemaker who with two other
child's. had did during the last three weeks in one house,
from Aim arising, it was believed, from the
defective fie sad filtliy condition of the wretched
place where the family were residing.—The jury visited the
dwellinp of the parents of deceased, in Hepworth-place,
Fountain-alley, Virginia. row. It was very dirty. The
walls were damp, and the effluvia from a nuisance at the
back of the how* most offensive. The father of the child
said that a moped had been pulled down some months
rierkee. • S %ewes& saturated

Ho& nelel=doring the severe wet weather,
whim en Pia wafted the filth from the wood into the
ham A idliatity of soil also Gomel icn,ugh the
/do. Weetoilseeniseon, 'eked what the obnoxious smell
arose from, when witness pointed out the condition of the
walls to him end the state of the yard. A quantity of
gravel, 'Waked been dug out of the hole where the wood
acme from, had likewise been scattered about the yard.
Witness oompleised et the filthy condition of the yard, and
subsequently the weed wee taken away. Mr. West, after
inspecting the bows, directed witness to pull the bedstead
from the wall. The bosses were the property of Mr.
Wilson, of Friar's Mount, but the rents were collected by a
Mr. Busher, whip told witness one day that if any person
interfered with the property, Mr. Wilson, his employer,
had a hundred peastls or two he could spare to punish
them.-13the mese" : Witness had buried two children.
One was then lying dead, and a fourth was not expected to
live many hours. There was not so much cause for com-
plaint since the wood had been removed. The Commis-
none. of Sewers last summer led down an 18-inch drain,
which weed into the main sewer from Fountaio.alley.
Mr. West, the surgeon, who had attended the children, had
no doubt, from the fact of three children dying in that
house, and another in the opposite dwelling, that their
deaths were Pinged by the unhealthy and dreadful condi-
tion of the back premises, which produced malignant fever
and swelling of the glands of the throat. Witness had re•
ported the condition of the house to Mr. Christie, the re-
lieving officer, in the beginning of December, when he
found that two of the children had died. Witness had been
reporting to the officers of the parish for a considerable
time the shocking suite of the cesspools, which wore over-
flowing with soil, which in some places found its way into
the sleeping rooms. The soil is manback yards could
occasionally be seen in that district of Bethnal-green three
and four inches deep.—Mr. Christie, the relieving officer,
was next called, and stated that his attention was directed
to the house in question by the last witness. He proceeded
to No. 1, Hepeworth.place, and found two children lying
ill with fever. He gave the father an order for nutritious
food, as the children were in a dangerous condition. The
room, which was on the ground BOOS', was most horribly
offensivej and situated several inches below the level of the
earth. The walls were very damp, and a mass of filth was
then upon them.—The jury returned a verdict, " That the
deceased died from typhus fever, arising from a nuisance
near a dwelling-house ; and tlsejurors also recommend the
removal of the other members of the family to a place free
of such danger."—The inquiry then terminated.
