FATAL CRTNOLIN E ACClDENT.—Yesterday an
inquest wes held by Dr. Lankester, at the Princess
Royal, Hereford-road, Westbourne-grove, on the body of
Mrs. Hannah Maria Grant, aged 61, the widow of a colonel
lately serving in the Indian army. Mrs. Elizabeth Dundas,
22, Hereford-road North, raid the deceased had lodged with
her about five years, and her daughter lived with her. On
Thursday last witness was called to the drawing room about
half-past eleven o'clock, and on going there she found de-
ceased in flames, which her daughter was trying to extin-
guish, in doing which her clothes caught fire, and she was
so burnt as to be unable to attend the court to give evi-
dence. The flames were finally extinguished, but the de-
ceased was so severely burnt that she died in a few hours.
Deceased stated that she wls standing with her back to the
fire looking at 1
a bird which had escaped from the cage,
when her dress, which was distended by a large crinoline,
caught fire. She tried with a pair of scissors to cut away
the parts in flames, but could not do so. The coroner, in
his summing up, strongly condemned the dangerous practice
of using crinoline. They returned a verdict of accidental
death.
