DREADFUL ACCIDENT AT HIGIIGAT,,;ARCII-
WAY.—For some time past vast numbers nrwork-
r men have been employed in erecting 33-;'alms.
houses near the Archway at Highgateejor the
aged poor belonging to the Mercers' Company,
and in order to complete the buildingsOt was
found expedient to remove an immense-pile of
earth that was dug from the road at the time tl e
Archway was forming, and which has rettpinf d
ever since standing on the side of the road.: Fur
some days the navigators have been at work in
conveying it away and shooting it i another pay t
of the road. On Saturday morning last,, whilst
some of the excavators were waiting for their
turn to have their wheelbarrows filled by
others who were digging at the bottom of
the vast pile, the upper part fell in. with
a tremendous crash, and five of the .navi-
gators were buried under it. The groans c f
the sufferers were distinctly heard by the other
workmen, who with surprising alacrity:: set t)
work, and after digging some time, succeeded' in
extricating four of the sufferers alive ; tlids fifth,
an aged navigator, who acted as forematr,: and
who had been employed in the excavations at
the Archway and the Regent's Canal, was found
almost crushed -to atoms, yet still alive.; :.The
unfortunate old man was taken on a shutter to
the. Archway Tavern, where he ,receiVed-every
surgical aid that could be obtained, but he died
, soon after from the injuries he sustained.
