DEATH OF MR. SADLER.

We have taken the following account of the
melancholy end of this intrepid Aeronaut, from
the Morning Chronicle of this day :

" TO THE EDITOR.
" Blackburn (Two o'Clock), Sept. 30, 1824.
Sia--Thinking that your readers might wish
to know the result' of Mr...ff. W. SADGEAVs as'
cent in his balloon from Bolton (being his thirty
first trip), I shall give. you such particulars as I
have been enabled to collect.. Mr. Sadler was
accompanied by his man-servant, and the wind
blew a -strong breeze from S.S.E., and being fa-
vourable for bringing the baloon towards this town,
many persons were anxiously on' the look out for
the aeronauts, and about half after two o'clock
the pilot was discovered to the east. About hall.-
past three the balloon was seen to
majestic style of grandeur. •
The balloon was seen hovering over Church
Parish, about four miles east of Blackburn, about
half-past three o'clock, when the aerial voyagers
pass in most
prepared to descend, and threw out a grappling'
iron, which caught a tree, and
arthe sudden jerk
threw Mr. Sadler out of the c, at broke th
cord. The balloon then dragged the car, ,l in
which Mr. S. was suspended by one leg. T"
car struck a chimney, and knocked it completed
lY
down, and shortly after Mr. S. fell t o theroun
from the height of about thirty yards,g
int" a
meadow !—Crowds of persons imtnediately as.
sembled, and conveyed him to a public-ltense,
es adjacent. The surgical aid of Doctor Stans-
field, and Mr. Muir, was procured; and a n''
senger sent off to this town for James Barlow,
Esq. (who has retired from practice, ace
cases of emergency, and great danger), 8" 1 r.
Dugdale. These gentlemen proceeded imlaei
diately to the spot, and rendered their aid+ bu,
without effect, for they found Mr. Sadler')
ortion
skull much fractured, and a considerablep
depressed upon the brain ; he was insnsible?
and had several ribs broken, and had sustained
serious internal injury. He lingered until ei god
ht,
o'clock this morning, when death put a pe
to his. sufferings. The balloon, lightened of Mr.
Sadler's weight, rose rapidly to a considerablet
height, and again descended near Wballey,abou.
three miles from the place of the accident, an. ct
the car coming in contact with sonic tn,e
man jumped out, and had his left arm fracturea.,
and received other injury. Mr. Hardy set I'ls
arm, and rendered him other medical assistance,
and the man then set off in a post chaise to PI"
ton. The balloon, lightened of both the adven:
turous aerounauts, rose rapidly into the air, an,'
has not yet been heard of. A Coroner's Jury Is
about to be summoned.
To add to this melancholy event, the landlord (Mr. Dien'
kinsop) of the public-house where Mr. Sadler's corpse W3g,
returning from Averington, and, when within a few yards °I
his house, he dropped down in an apoplectic fit, and illanaeat.
ately expired.—Your's, Zce. in great haste, ,
