Last evenin' an inquest was held at Caahiobary-

cause of the death of Horatia, widow of Le Cotate
Achille de Septeuil, the eldest sister of the Earl of
Essex, who lost her life by fi►e at the residence, of
her brother, under the circumstances detailed in
evidence.

The Coroner, Mr. Robert Geogre Lowe, solicitor,
of St. Alban's, having empanelled a highly respec-
table jury, the following witnesses were called.
Charles Dodds, servant in the establishment of
the Earl of Essex, deposed that Lady de Septeuil
was on a visit to her brother, the Earl of
Essex, at Cashiobary-house, and that on Satur-
day night about a quarter past 10 o'clock
he heard the bell of the green drawing-room ring
violently. He was proceeaing to that room in
haste, when on passing into the cloister-room he
saw Lady de Septeuil lying on the floor with her
clothes burning, and the Earl throwing a large red
cloth over her. Her ladyship Ras screaming,
"Fire, fire," "Save the house." Witness had seen.
her ladyship about five minutes before he heard the
bell ring. She was then going into her bedroom,
and was carrying a silver chamber candlestick in
her hand. Witness assisted his lordship to extin"

Sarah Chitte d n en, one of the female servants,
stated that she se.w Lady de Septeuil immediately
after the accident. Her ladyship said that she hod
set the candle on the toilet-table, and then turned
round and saw herself in flames. She threw herself
on the bed, but, finding she had set that alight, she
ran downstairs screaming. The deceased had on a
black tarlatan dress trimmed with black lace, and
that was a very inflammable material. Her lady-
ship was 39 years old.
Dr. Brett, of Watford, deposed that be was sent
for to the house, and arrived there a little before
11 o'clock on Saturday night. He found Lady de
Septeuil in bed in great pain, the whole of her body
being fearfully burnt, except her face and the soles
of her feet. She was cold and puleeleas. He applied
the usual remedies in cases of burning, and admid
nistered stimulants, but her ladyship died about 19
hours after the accident.
