EXPLOSION OF A KITCHEN BOlLER.—Yesterday
an inquest was held at Preston on the body of a woman
named Jane Shaw. The deceased lived in Back Sidney-
street, and on the previous day she went to clean the
cellar kitchen of an unoccupied house in Stanley-place.
She set a fire in the grate, and some time afterwards the
kitchen boiler exploded with a loud noise. She was badly
scalded, and had one of her legs broken. A police officer
and others conveyed her to the House of Recovery, where
she died in a few hours. The boiler which exploded was
constructed on the self-feeding principle, and it is sup-
posed that the pipes had got closed up through the frost.
A verdict of " Accidental death" was returned.
