DEATH OF A CHILD BY FIRE.—On Thursday
an inquest was held by Mr. Payne at St. Bartholomew's
Hospital on the body of Mary Ann Robinson, aged ten
years. The child, it appeared, was occupied in frying
some potatoes for her brother's dinner, when a piece of
wood fell lighted out of the grate and set the child's
clothes on fire, which extending to the bed-clothes, the
house would have, in all probability, been burned down
had not timely assistance arrived. She lingered till Wed-
sday evening, when she died of the burns. Verdict,
Accidental death.
SHOCKING ACCIDENT.--CAUTION TO PA-
RENTS.—Between seven and eight o'clock on Wednesday
evening, a shocking accident happened to a little boy,
residing in the Queen's Bench-walk. It appears that the
oor little fellow had got up behind a cab, unperceived
by the driver, till he stopped in the Borough-road, to
put down a lady, when he was alarmed by seeing the
feet of the unfortunate boy standing upwards, and his
body entangled in the wheel, from which perilous situa-
tion he could not be extricated without the wheel being
taken off. He was conveyed to a surgeon's in an almost
lifeless state, when his injuries were discovered to be of
the most serious nature ; he was subsequently conveyed
to St. Thomas's Hospital.
